Needle Core Biopsy Should Replace Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology in Breast Lesions Diagnosis

needle core biopsy should replace fine needle aspiration cytology in breast lesions diagnosis

Concordance Rate between Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy and Core Needle Biopsy in Breast Lesions

Background and Objectives:Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is one of the methods of breast biopsy which is fast, easy and cost effective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the concordance rate between pathologic results of sonography or stereotaxy guided FNAB and guided core needle biopsy (CNB) in the evaluation of breast le...

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology versus Fine Needle Capillary Sampling in Cytological Diagnosis of Thyroid Lesions

Background and Objectives: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an established out- patient procedure used in primary diagnosis of palpable thyroid lesions. A modified technique fine needle capillary sampling (FNCS) obviates the need of suction, is less painful, patient friendly and reported to overcome the problem of inadequate and bloody specimens. The aim of our study was to compare the...

Diagnosis of breast lesions: fine-needle aspiration cytology or core needle biopsy? A review.

Diagnosis of breast lesions is routinely performed by the triple assessment of a specialised surgeon, radiologist and pathologist. In this setting, fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and core needle biopsy (CNB) are the current methods of choice for pathological diagnosis, both with their specific advantages and limitations. Evidence-based literature discussing which of both modalities is p...

Significance of fine needle aspiration cytology and vacuum-assisted core needle biopsy for small breast lesions.

BACKGROUND In recent years, pathological diagnoses have been increasingly required, especially in small breast lesions, because malpractice lawsuits concerning erroneous cytological diagnoses have been commonly reported. Here, we retrospectively evaluated the significance of FNAC and VAB for small breast lesions using ultrasonography guidance. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 1383 cases for wh...
