  1. Samples marked with + have rea(14)(q32.33), thus they have to go to the adverse prognosis group. Samples with deletion of 13q14.2 and 13q14.3 detected by MLPA and/or deletion of 13q14.3 in ≥70% of the nuclei detected by iFISH go to unfavorable subgroup within good prognosis group. Figures printed not bold and not in italics are case numbers; figures printed bold and in italics are absolute numbers of samples or same numbers in percent.
