Cytogenetic data on ovarian germ cell tumors are scarce. Abnormalities of chromosome 12, however, seem to be recurrent, and among these are small metacentrics assumed to be i(12p) as in other germ cell tumors. We here present evidence that a similar, small metacentric found in an ovarian dysgerminoma is a derivative of chromosome 12 but is not an i(12p).

D000328 Adult A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available. Adults
D017404 In Situ Hybridization, Fluorescence A type of IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION in which target sequences are stained with fluorescent dye so their location and size can be determined using fluorescence microscopy. This staining is sufficiently distinct that the hybridization signal can be seen both in metaphase spreads and in interphase nuclei.

D018237 Germinoma A malignant neoplasm of the germinal tissue of the GONADS; MEDIASTINUM; or pineal region. Germinomas are uniform in appearance, consisting of large, round cells with vesicular nuclei and clear or finely granular eosinophilic-staining cytoplasm.
