Cytogenetics of Spindle Cell/Pleomorphic Lipomas: Karyotyping and FISH Analysis of 31 Tumors

Conclusion: Structural rearrangements of 13q or losses of an entire chromosome 13 are the most common cytogenetic aberrations in spindle cell/pleomorphic lipomas. However, cytogenetic variation exists similarly to what is found in other lipomas, suggesting that various pathways may be responsible for tumorigenesis.
