Chromosomal aberrations involving 8q11.2 have been reported in lipobla
stoma. We report here a case of lipoblastoma with new chromosomal aber
ration, 46,XX,ins(8;6)(q11.2;q13q27). Cytogenetic analysis would facil
itate the clinical differentiation between myxoid liposarcoma and the
pathologically similar lipoblastoma and the identification of genetic
loci related to cellular growth. (C) Elsevier Science, Inc., 1997.
