Cytogenetic changes in ovarian mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of low malignant potential with persistent pseudomyxoma peritonei.

Minimal cytogenetic data are available for low malignant potential ovarian neoplasms, and none for those complicated by pseudomyxoma peritonei. Cytogenetic analysis was performed on tissue obtained from a patient undergoing repeat evacuation of mucin and mucin-producing implants in pseudomyxoma peritonei originating from an ovarian mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of low malignant potential. Specimens obtained from intraperitoneal implants during one of the cyto/mucin-reductive procedures revealed a mixture of normal female karyotype (46,XX) and an abnormal karyotype with a deletion involving the short arm of chromosome 1, and a balanced translocation involving chromosomes 2 and 6, [46,XXdel(1)(p21p31), t(2;6)(q35;p21)]. The vast majority of the cells from three subsequent cyto/mucin-reductive procedures displayed a normal female karyotype with few cells containing random abnormalities.[1]
