Abstract
Many primary pediatric brain tumors are characterized by nonrandom cytogenetic abnormalities involving specific structural rearrangements and loss or gain of specific chromosomes. We describe a low-grade cerebellar astrocytoma with telomeric association of chromosomes 18 and 21 in a 7-year old girl. The nonrandom telomeric association of these chromosomes represents a unique cytogenetic finding in this type of pediatric brain tumor.
