Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 2001
The purpose of the current study was to determine the accuracy of the cytologic diagnosis of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) by fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB).During a 4-year period (1994-1998), 1664 lung FNABs were performed. Forty-nine patients with BAC diagnosed by FNAB and/or surgical biopsy formed the basis of this study.Twenty-four ...
