During a 10-yr period, 128 consecutive cases of pulmonary adenocarcinoma of varying differentiation were diagnosed with percutaneous fine-needle aspiration biopsy. Sediments from the needle and syringe washings with 3% glutaraldehyde were obtained and processed for electron microscopic evaluation in
## Abstract We reviewed 119 percutaneous, radiologically guided fineβneedle aspirations (FNA) from 114 patients with liver masses to evaluate diagnostic effectiveness and complications of this procedure. Satisfactory material was obtained in 118 cases (99%), of which 78 were diagnosed as positive (
## Abstract Mucins are aberrantly expressed in various malignancies. We immunohistochemistrically tested mucins expression (MUC1, MUC2 and MUC5AC) in EUSβFNA samples from pancreatic occupying lesions for the diagnostic utility. The prevalence of MUC1, MUC2 and MUC5AC expression in pancreatic cancer
