Endometriosis is dened as the presence of functional endometrium outside the uterine cavity. Abdominal wall
endometriosis is a rare entity. Most of the cases present with abdominal wall lump in and around surgical scars following
cesarean section. Here, we report a series of 3 cases diagnosed as scar endometriosis on FNAC and after excision conrmed on histopathology.
Background: Bone tumors constitute approximately 1% of all tumors affecting the human body. The key to their accurate recognition is the utilization of an integrated approach that assesses and correlates the clinical, radiological, morphological and biological behaviour of these lesions. Method: After complete clinical and plain radiographic examinations, FNAC was done. All eligible cases of bone tumors undergoing FNAC, slides were stained by H & E and MGG and confirmed by histopathological diagnosis Results: In our study out of 117 cases of bone tumors, satisfactory aspiration was obtained in 100 cases , 17 cases were unsatisfactory and 7 cases were misdiagnosed. 100 cases could be correlated and 93% correlation was obtained. Whereas sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 93.4%, 92.5%, 91.4% and 94.3% respectively Conclusion: Fine-needle aspiration of bone is a simple, reliable, and accurate diagnostic technique that can facilitate patient management and preoperative decision-making and/or avoid unnecessary invasive procedures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
