The cytogenetic findings based on G-banding in a pineocytoma detected in a 29-year-old woman are reported. The chromosomal study showed numerical alterations involving chromosomes X, 5, 8, 11, 14, and 22, structural alterations of chromosomes 1, 3, 12, and 22, as well as various markers. Tumors of the pineal region are infrequent, and this is the first report of a pineocytoma studied cytogenetically.
The authors studied 201 school children form both sexes, aging 12 to 14 years, in order to identify anodontia, including in third molars. The results indicated a congenital absence of teeth in 24.37% of the examined children, distributed into 10.44% of boys and 13.93% of girls.

The data were presented and discussed, and the results included several conclusions.
