“…[70][71][72] Unfortunately, these LOH or copy number-neutral changes could not be detectable by current FISH platforms, despite using a BAC clone probe (RP11-572M14, chr3: 10,011,785-10,180,797) that covers the entire sequence of VHL gene (VHL, chr3:10,141,008-10,153,670). 16,17,25,26,69,73 Further molecular analysis, particularly by high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism microarrays, may serve to identify an even higher percentage of alterations in 3p chromosomal regions in future studies. 8,16,17,26,68 RCC with sarcomatoid features is an aggressive, heterogeneous subset of tumors that frequently present at a high clinical stage.…”
