Langerhans cell histiocytosis of thyroid and bilateral parotid diagnosed on fine needle aspiration cytology Cytopathology (IF 1.3) Pub Date : 2024-03-30 Kuppuswamy Chandrasekaran Sharan, Lumen Agarkar, Rajashree Jeyaraman, Sathiyalakshmi Radhakrishnan, Debasis Gochhait
LCH has a distinct site predilection and cytological feature. However, it can cause diagnostic difficulties at unusual sites or deviated cytomorphology. FNAC is a minimally invasive procedure that can be performed in any organ (parotid and thyroid where biopsy is not commonly indicated) and multiple sites/organs simultaneously for diagnosis. FNA sampling can also help with cell block preparation for

Uses and limitations of small‐volume biopsies for the diagnosis of lymphoma Cytopathology (IF 1.3) Pub Date : 2024-03-11 Megan J. Fitzpatrick, Aliyah R. Sohani, Amy Ly
Although surgical biopsy remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of lymphoma, small‐volume biopsies including fine‐needle aspiration and core needle biopsy are increasingly being used as a first line diagnostic tool. Small‐volume biopsies are safe, rapid and cost effective; however, diagnostic utility varies by lymphoma subtype. It is important for pathologists and clinicians to recognize both
