Fine‐Needle Aspiration Biopsy

The Laryngoscope, 2001
AbstractObjectives: Fine‐needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is a technique in which a fine needle is introduced into a mass, cellular material is aspirated, and a cytological diagnosis is rendered. It separates reactive and inflammatory processes that do not require surgical intervention from neoplasia and benign from malignant tumors.

Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy of the Pancreas

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1976
Fine needle aspiration biopsy from the pancreas was carried out peroperatively in 60 patients. A suspicion of malignancy due to a palpaple mass in the pancreas was raised in 45 cases and confirmed by cytology in 27 cases. Of the remaining 18 cases in which malignancy was suspected, the majority were caused by penetrating gastroduodenal ulcers or ...

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.
