description

Three Bellini duct carcinomas (BDC) of the kidney were cytogenetically analyzed after short-term culture. All three had clonal chromosome abnormalities: 91-92,XXY,-Y, +12, +12, -15, -16, -18, +mar (case 1); 53,XY, +2,t(2;7)(p22;q11), +der (2)t (2;7)(p22;q11), +3, +r(3),add(5)(p15), +7, -8, +12, +17, +r(17), +20, -21 (case 2); and 44-47,X,-Y, +9, +16, -21/46,XY. Some of the numerical abnormalities are shared with papillary renal cell carcinomas (PRCC)(+7, +12, +16, +17, and +20) but not with transitional renal cell carcinomas. The present findings support the previous notion that BDC are different from other types of RCC.
