For this purpose comparison of cytological results with the conventional histo pathological results were take place.Seventy-two specimens were obtained by F.N.A.B. from 60 patients with age range from 3-84 years of both sexes, 11.7% of the patients had previous history of diagnosed malignant tumors.Cytological resultsshow 40 cases(55.5%) were benign tumor, 27 cases (37.5 %) were malignant, 3 cases (4.2 %) unsatisfactory for diagnosis and 2 cases (2.8 %) were suspicious to be malignant.The statistical analysis showed that F.N.A.B. had sensitivity (92.6%), specificity (100%), positive predictive value (92.3%), and accuracy rate (96%). | ||
