Spontaneous level of sister chromatid exchanges in patients with tuberous sclerosis and Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis

It is shown that the average number of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) per one cell in patients with tuberous sclerosis as well as in those with Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis do not differ from the control. But the non-parametric methods of analysis have revealed differences in the spontaneous level of SCE is patients with tuberous sclerosis, while no such differences were revealed in patients with Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis.
