The Exfoliative Cytology of Diffuse Malignant Mesothelioma.

ALTHOUGH excellent accounts have been published in recent years of the gross and histological pathology of neoplasms believed to be diffuse malignant mesotheliomas, there remains a scarcity of adequate descriptions of their exfoliative cytology. One purpose of this paper is to help correct this deficiency. Another is to present further evidence that diffuse malignant mesothelioma really exists, for undoubtedly there are still some who are not convinced that there is such an entity.
