Fine needle aspiration biopsy and the otolaryngologist
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1987SummaryA survey of the diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration cytology in ENT practice was carried out over a 3-year period. The 119 aspirates were taken from a variety of head and neck sites and examined by an experienced cytopathologist. Cytology was accurate in 111 (93 per cent), with two false negative aspirates (1.7 per cent) and no false ...

Percutaneous puncture biopsy is now an obligatory modality in thyroid diseases. It can utilize fine needles with inner diameters of up to 1 mm or thick needles with diameters of over 1 mm. In some cases, thyroid biopsy is performed using special needles: trepan biopsy. Boey et al. (1986) and Carson et al. (1996) have demonstrated that this method leads

Percutaneous fine needle biopsy in pediatrics
Pediatric Radiology, 1985We performed 25 percutaneous fine needle biopsies (PFNB) on pediatric patients during a 3-year period. Of 17 patients with proven malignancies, PFNB was true positive in 16 and false negative in one. In nine patients with benign or inflammatory disorders, there were three true positives and six false negatives.

Risk in fine‐needle abdominal biopsy
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1983AbstractThe complications of fine‐needle abdominal biopsy (FNAB) in 11, 700 patients from our own series and from a review of the literature are reported. The mortality rate (one case of necrotizing pancreatitis) was 0.008%, the rate of major complications (two cases of biliary peritonitis, two tumor seeding, one intrahepatic hematoma, and one ...

Pediatric Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1991A total of 135 fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies from varying sites were performed in 123 children (mean, 10.5 years; range, one day to 18 years) over a five-year period. One hundred thirty (96.3%) biopsy specimens were satisfactory for evaluation. Seventy-nine cases were nonneoplastic (60.8%); among these cases, a specific diagnosis of infectious ...

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of the mediastinum
The American Journal of Medicine, 1986Fine-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 CHILDREN
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1997Background: Fine needle biopsy (FNB) in children has been slow to gain acceptance compared with the use of the technique in adults where it is regarded as standard clinical practice in screening significant lymphadenopathy and suspicious masses. We report our early experience with FNB in the paediatric population.

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of bone.
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1983The technique of fine-needle aspiration biopsy seems to be ideally suited for the diagnosis of lytic bone lesions at practically any location in the skeleton. The technique is simple, carries minimum risks, and can often be performed on an outpatient basis. Advances in cytological techniques have made it possible to reach an accurate diagnosis for most
