Virtually all malignant mesotheliomas (MMs) exhibit clonal chromosomal aberrations. Although the chromosome regions affected by these aberration(s) may vary from 1 tumor to another, certain regions are commonly disrupted. These aberrations are absent in benign mesothelial cells, and therefore their presence can be used to confirm a diagnosis of MM. In the current study, the authors investigated the value of karyotyping and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) as adjuncts to conventional cytologic examination in patients with MM.
