FISH analysis. FISH finding in chromosome 4 with green signal corresponding to centromere region and red signal corresponding to 4p.16.3 region. The green arrow showed the deletion of chromosome 4 and the red arrow indicated normal chromosome: a) the FISH sample shows chromosomes 4 without deletion; b) FISH test shows 4p monoallelic deletion
