Summary

The data indicate that approximately half of all retinoblastomas are homozygous for large portions of 13q, that the homozygosity occurs in vivo and not as an event secondary to culture of the tumor cells, and that chromosome 13 hom allele is not correlated with the degree of histopathologic differentiation of the tumors.
