Guided biopsy of hepatocellular carcinoma has been recently discussed again due to the progress of imaging techniques and the risk of malignant seeding after the procedure. Ultrasound is probably still the most accurate imaging modality for early detection of nodules arising on cirrhosis, even when

The usefulness of fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in the diagnosis and treatment of salivary gland lesions is still controversial. The 438 FNABs taken at the Turku University Central Hospital between 1984-1991 were reviewed. Of these FNABs, 218 had been confirmed histologically. Within this sub
Cystic parathyroid lesions (CPL) account for I-5% of neck cysts. They are seldom palpable: however, they may present as neck swellings that are mistaken both clinically and cytologically for thyroid nodules and subsequentlv referred for evaluation by fine-needle aspiration. We present 4 cases of his
