Abstract: Primary bone and soft tissue tumors comprise about 1% of all malignancies. Cytogenetic studies of malignancies have been reported to play a significant role in their diagnosis, prognosis and management. However, there have been no similar studies reported in the Philippines. The study was conducted to identify the specific tumor karyotypes associated with primary bone and soft tissue tumors among Filipino patients. Subjects included patients seen at the UP-PGH Muskoloskeletal Tumor Unit. This paper presents chromosomal studies on tumor specimens of 14 patients, 50% which had abnormal karyotypes.
