## BACKGROUND. Flow cytometry (FC) is a useful adjunct to fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNC) in evaluating lymphoproliferative disorders. The authors present a critical review of 307 lymph nodal and extra lymph nodal lymphoproliferative disorders that were diagnosed with FNC and FC. ## METHODS
## Abstract The Revised European American lymphoma (REAL) and World Health Organization (WHO) classification of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) relies on the constellation of cytologic, phenotypic, genotypic, and clinical characteristics of NHL. For the most part, the classification does not rely on a
Cytomorphology in conjunction with immunophenotypic characterization is becoming increasingly used for the primary diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). This combination is especially advantageous for the diagnosis of intra-abdominal and intrathoracic lymphomas, since unlike superficial lesion
## Background: The primary diagnosis of non-hodgkin's lymphoma/leukemia (nhl) by fine-needle aspiration (fna) is controversial. the authors reviewed their experience with fna and flow cytometry (fc) to determine the usefulness and limitations of these techniques in the diagnosis of nhl. ## Methods
