Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
Introduction- The incidence of breast cancer changes significantly with age. In spite of various modalities of treatment there has been no appreciable decrease in death rate due to breast cancer. The study aims to correlate with the histological diagnosis to evaluate the accuracy the sensitivity and specificity of aspiration cytology. Materials and methods- Cytodiagnosis of breast lesions by fine needle aspiration cytology was carried out in 406 patients having breast lump. Fine needle aspiration was performed from at least three sites in each lump. Results- A total numbers of one hundred fifty seven cases were evaluated cytohistologically. In this study inflammatory lesions were 16 (10.08%) benign lesions 89 (66.16%) and the rest 52 (32.76%) were malignant lesions. Conclusion- Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is the best technique to differentiate benign from malignant lesions.
