High-resolution copy number analysis of clear cell endometrial carcinoma

In conclusion, our study provides evidence of inter-tumor heterogeneity in the extent to which SCNAs occur in clinically diagnosed clear cell EC, and across molecular subgroups of EC. The co-occurrence of high-level SCNAs and TP53 mutations in some clear cell ECs is consistent with the view that a subset of clinically diagnosed clear cell ECs have molecular similarities to serous ECs.
