Comparative Evaluation of Cell Block Method and Smear Cytology in Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Intra-abdominal Mass Lesions
Background& Objective: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an easy, rapid, and less hazardous tool to diagnose the intra-abdominal lesions with various imaging modalities adding to its sensitivity and accuracy. However, sometimes it does not yield adequate information for precise diagnosis and the risk of false-negative and indeterminate diagnosi...
متن کاملCell Block Preparation from Cytology Specimen with Predominance of Individually Scattered Cells
This video demonstrates Shidham's method for preparation of cell blocks from liquid based cervicovaginal cytology specimens containing individually scattered cells and small cell groups. This technique uses HistoGel (Thermo Scientific) with conventional laboratory equipment. The use of cell block sections is a valuable ancillary tool for evaluation of non-gynecologic cytology. They enable the c...
متن کاملCell block cytology. Improved preparation and its efficacy in diagnostic cytology.
Cell blocks prepared from residual tissue fluids and fine-needle aspirations can be useful adjuncts to smears for establishing a more definitive cytopathologic diagnosis. They can be particularly useful for categorization of tumors that otherwise may not be possible from smears themselves. A modified cell block technique using an improvised ethanol formalin fixative (Nathan alcohol formalin sub...
متن کاملCytology of angiosarcoma. Findings in fourteen fine-needle aspiration biopsy specimens and one pleural fluid specimen.
We report the cytologic features of 15 cases of angiosarcoma from various sites and include 14 fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy specimens and 1 pleural fluid specimen. Six were initial diagnoses with histologic confirmation; an additional case in the liver was an initial diagnosis without tissue confirmation. One case represented lymph node metastasis from a primary prostatic epithelioid ang...
متن کاملFine needle aspiration cytology and cell-block study of various breast lumps
Aim of the study was to evaluate the importance of the combined use of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and cell-block in the diagnosis of different breast lesions. Patient and methods: This study was a prospective study of 310 cases (301 females and 9 males) with breast swelling, coming to cytopathology unit, faculty of medicine, Zagazig University. FNAC and cell-block were performed. Cy...
