Abstract
Cytogenetic analysis of a low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma of the uterus in a! 52-year-old woman revealed the karyotype 46,XY,t(7;17)(p 14 similar to 21;q11.2 similar to 21),der(7)t(7;16)(p14-15;q22)t(7;9) (q22;q22), der(9)t(7;9)(q22;q22),del(16)(q22). The t(7;17) was identic al to an aberration observed in two other cases of endometrial stromal sarcomas, thus confirming the idea that it constitutes a non-random a berration for this type of tumor.
