Does chromosome 2q24.2 is lose in sporadic but not in BRCA1-associated ovarian carcinomas?
Our data do not support the association between copy number gain at 2q24-32 and BRCA1 mutation status in ovarian cancers reported previously. The novel finding of the present study was significant loss at 2q24.2 in sporadic ovarian cancers.
Imaging techniques in the surveillance of resected colorectal cancer contribute to early detection of relapse with a high proportion of operable metastatic disease.
