CYTOGENETIC STUDIES IN HODGKIN'S DISEASE

Abstract
Cytogenetic analysis was attempted in 20 patients with Hodgkin's disease. No mitoses were found in 2 cases, normal metaphases in 7, and normal metaphases with nonclonal aberrations in 7. Of the 4 cases with clonal aberrations, one had +16 as the sole change, whereas the remaining tumors had multiple numerical and structural changes.
