Fine-needle aspiration cytology reduces the frequency of surgeries for malignant salivary gland tumors. [PDF]

Cancer Cytopathol
Abstract Background Salivary gland tumors are rare and heterogeneous head and neck neoplasms. Preoperative distinction between benign and malignant lesions is challenging because imaging is often insufficient. Fine‐needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) combined with the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) provides standardized ...
