Though the mesenchymal portion most commonly resembles a fibrosarcoma, other differentiation patterns have been observed. We present the first genomic characterisation (karyotyping followed by FISH and array comparative genomic hybridisation analysis) of a gliosarcoma with osseous metaplasia. In additi...
