was reviewed and analyzed. Positive cytologic results diagnosed malignancies in 49.3 % . Sensitivity and specificity of cytology reached 95% and 96.

5%, respectively. The order of frequency of the metastatic tumors according to primary sites was analyzed. The most common metastatic carcinomas in various groups of LNs were nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the cervical LN. breast carcinoma in the axillary LN, and cervical carcinoma in both the groin and pelvic LNs. Tuberculosis (TB) is an important dixerential diagnosis: FNAC showed a sensitiv-

Malignancies from many primary sites may metastasize to supraclavicular lymph nodes (SCLN). We reviewed 100 fine-needle aspirations (FNAs) of SCLNs. There were three major types of malignancy detected by this method: adenocarcinoma (n = 40), squamous cell carcinoma (n = 14). and other malignancies (

## Background: Fine-needle aspiration (fna) cytology of axillary lymph nodes is a simple, minimally invasive technique that can be used to improve preoperative determination of the status of the axillary lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer, thereby serving as a tool with which to triage pati

## Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the role of immunocytochemistry as an ancillary method on routine FNACs of enlarged lymph nodes, using different markers. In a validating cohort study all patients had confirmatory histological and/or clinical follow‐up. 10 FNACs were analyzed for th

## Abstract Recent reports have indicated that needle biopsy without aspiration obtained adequate material for diagnosis. To determine objectively the adequacy of cell yield both for diagnosis and for special studies (e.g., flow cytometry, markers), we prospectively studied 20 superficial lymph nod
