No DNA copy number changes in osteochondromas: a comparative genomic hybridization study

Cancer Genet Cytogenet. 1997 Aug;97(1):76-8. doi: 10.1016/s0165-4608(96)00332-9.

Abstract

Cytogenetic changes in osteochondroma samples were studied by comparative genomic hybridization and by chromosome banding. No DNA copy number changes (15 patients) or chromosomal aberrations (9 patients) were observed in any of the patients.
