Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Mycetoma
Acta Cytologica, 1996To describe fine needle aspiration cytology of mycetoma and determine its usefulness in diagnosis.The study group consisted of 14 patients with different types of mycetoma lesions, which were aspirated. Smears were reviewed without knowing the type of mycetoma, and the findings were compared with those observed in histologic sections.In mycetoma, the ...

Fine‐needle aspiration cytology of “ancient” schwannoma
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1999The term "ancient" schwannoma was proposed for a group of neural tumors showing degenerative changes and marked nuclear atypia. Prior to the realization that the observed atypia was a regressive phenomenon, many of these lesions were erroneously diagnosed as sarcomas.

Pitfalls in fine needle aspiration cytology*
Cytopathology, 2003A review of pitfalls encountered in fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of all organs and tissues and based mainly on the author's 35‐year experience of diagnostic FNAC in clinical practice is presented. Diagnostic difficulties are usually related to deviations from common cytological criteria that may occur in some lesions.

Renal Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
Acta Cytologica, 1999To audit and evaluate the pitfalls in renal fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology.A retrospective analysis of 180 renal FNAs from 163 patients, encountered at Canberra Hospital, Australian Capital Territory, between June 1989 and July 1997 was undertaken. The FNA procedures had been performed by radiologists under computed tomography (CT) or ultrasound

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
2011The application of fine needle aspiration cytology to the management of thyroid disorders has an interesting practical history. The first clinical uses of aspiration cytology evolved from Scandinavia in the 1950s [1]. Martin and Ellis utilized this technique in 1930 to diagnose a variety of masses at Memorial Hospital in New York [2].

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Ovarian Lesions
Acta Cytologica, 2005To assess the diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in ovarian lesions.Sixty-two fine needle aspirations of varied ovarian masses were performed between January 2000 and February 2003. Aspiration material was obtained from fresh tissues at the time of frozen section before dissection of the specimens. The slides were evaluated by a

Diagnosis of mastocytosis by fine‐needle aspiration cytology
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1998We report a case of a 28-yr-old man in whom mastocytosis was diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of enlarged periaortic lymph nodes. FNA cytology revealed numerous mast cells characterized by cells having round to oval eccentrically placed nuclei and associated coarsely granular cytoplasm, most conspicuous on Diff-Quik- and Giemsa-stained smears.

Fine-needle Aspiration Cytology of the Thyroid
2007Thyroid nodules are common in the general population, and their incidence is higher in women and the elderly. It is estimated that 19–67% of randomly selected individuals harbor thyroid nodules when examined by high-resolution ultrasound. Thyroid cancer occurs in just 5–15% of thyroid nodules; risk factors include age, sex, radiation exposure, family ...

Fine-needle aspiration cytology
1991In 1930, Martin (1) advocated the use of fine-needle aspiration of head and neck lesions for diagnostic purposes. The method was largely abandoned until the fifties (2) and it became popular during the sixties, especially in Sweden (3, 4). Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is now practiced in many large centers.
