“…Structural variations (SV), which alter chromosomal structure and the DNA copy number, are increasingly recognized as major contributors to genome variability [62] . Copy number changes at 11q13 region are associated with several cancer phenotypes such as primary melanoma [63] , breast cancer [64] , [65] , [66] , [67] , [68] , [69] , [70] , head and neck cancers [71] , [72] , [73] , bladder, lung, oral squamous cell, liver and esophageal cancers [ 57 , 74 ], cervical cancer [61] , endocrine tumors (ETs) of pancreas and duodenum [75] , ovarian cancer [74] and prostate cancer [76] . In certain disease conditions, the 11q13 copy number changes span several mega bases (Mb) of DNA [ 77 , 78 ].…”
