Hyperdiploidy defines a distinct cytogenetic entity of meningiomas
2007
Background
The most common chromosomal aberration found in meningiomas is monosomy 22. Progression and recurrence of meningiomas are usually associated with additional chromosome losses. Rarely, however, meningiomas have strongly hyperdiploid karyotypes with over 50 chromosomes; the objective of this study was to explore the cytogenetic and histopathologic patterns as well as the clinical significance of hyperdiploidy in meningiomas.
