Cancer Genet Cytogenet. 1989 May;39(1):21-4. doi: 10.1016/0165-4608(89)90224-0.

Abstract

Cytogenetic studies were performed on a fibrosarcoma of a newborn. Only numerical chromosome changes (+8, +11, +20) were identified in this rare but distinct soft tissue sarcoma that occurs in children less than 5 years old.
