Abstract

We report two-cases of brain tumors, one childhood medulloblastoma and one adult glioblastoma with an unusual chromosomal abnormality: a t(1;19)(q23;q13). We analyzed these karyotypes using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and wonder if this chromosomal aberration could represent a particular entity in these brain tumors like t(1;19) in ALL.
