Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy of the Liver

Advances in Anatomic Pathology, 1999
The liver is a commonly targeted deep-seated organ in which fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is performed. By far, the most frequently encountered lesions on FNAB of the liver are metastases; however, a wide variety of other lesions have been described and are likely to be encountered.

Transvaginal Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy

Acta Cytologica, 2001
To assess the role of transvaginal fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in the evaluation of palpable gynecologic masses.Transvaginal FNABs from 1994 to 1999 were identified from the files of Barnes-Jewish Hospital. Histologic correlation was obtained using the Pathology Department's computer database.

Inaccuracy of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy

Ophthalmology, 1985
Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of orbital tumors has been recently advocated as a reliable diagnostic modality. An accuracy rate of 92% has been claimed by some authors. This figure remains unproven as most patients have not undergone simultaneous pathologic examination.

Orbital Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1985
Fine-needle aspiration was used as a primary orbital diagnostic technique in 156 patients. A 20-mm syringe, a 22-gauge, 3.75-cm needle, and a plastic pistol grip were used. Local anesthetic was not necessary. When the needle is in the lesion, small to-and-fro movements with a minimum of angulation are helpful.

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of the mediastinum

The American Journal of Medicine, 1986
Fine-needle aspiration is a useful technique to identify neoplasms of many sites, such as breast, thyroid, and lung. Thirty-two mediastinum aspirates from 29 patients were reviewed. Five aspirates yielded insufficient material. Five aspirates were of benign lesions. Four aspirates were suggestive of but not diagnostic of malignancy.

Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy in Lymphoma

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1990
Patients with lymphoma undergo excisional biopsy of an affected lymph node for initial classification of their disease because accurate classification depends on the histologic characteristics of the neoplasm. However, fine needle aspiration cytology has a role in the management of lymphoma patients, particularly in those with recurrent or residual ...

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of colonic masses

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1998
Between 1989 and 1996, fine-needle aspiration biopsy was performed in 22 patients with palpable colonic masses. In all of these patients colonoscopic examination was either not possible or could not be carried out successfully. The results of aspiration biopsy were confirmed by surgery and histopathological examination of the tissue.

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of orbital meningioma

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1999
Fine-needle aspiration was performed on an orbital mass in a 53-yr-old woman. The cytologic diagnosis was meningioma, which was later confirmed by histologic study of biopsy material. The cytologic features of the aspirated material (nuclear pseudoinclusions, psammoma bodies, and cells arranged in syncytial sheets and whorls) allowed a rapid, reliable,
