Publisher's Synopsis
This is a sourcebook on the chromosome changes that have been reported in cases of human neoplastic disorder. Presented in two volumes, this extensive work features the same systematic and uniform presentation that characterized earlier editions, but now incorporates material that has been gathered in the last two years, which represents a substantial increase for the material in the catalogue. In addition to the inclusion of new material, existing entries in the text have been revised on the latest research evidence. For each entry, the catalogue provides karyotypes, the breakpoints of structural changes, the morphological classification of the neoplastic condition, tumour site whenever appropriate and references.
