Orbital Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1985Fine-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.

Inaccuracy of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy
Ophthalmology, 1985Fine 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.

Transvaginal Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy [PDF]
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.

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

Fine‐Needle aspiration biopsy revisited.
The Laryngoscope, 1982AbstractBetween November 1972 and December 1981, 1303 fine needle aspiration biopsies were performed on pntients with head and neck masses at the Medical College of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University. The results of 649 lymph node, 227 salivary gland, 286 thyroid, and 41 miscellaneous aspiration biopsies are reviewed.

Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is a diagnostic test routinely used in the evaluation of thyroid nodule disease and it is crucial to stratify the risk of malignancy. Furthermore, FNAB can also be used to evacuate large cystic nodules and is helpful in patient with thyroid cancer to detect lymph nodes metastases.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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.
