According to Sex Distribution - Out of the 50 cases studied, 28 cases were males and 22 cases females, The male to female ratio was 1.27 : 0.78. According to Sensitivity and Specicity - accuracy of 98.50% for tuberculous lymphadenopathy to histological correlation. Conclusion:- Cervical lymphadenopathy is an important disease, commonly come across, and always calls for meticulous attention, analysis and treatment. FNAC being inexpensive, quick in getting the results and easy to perform as an out patient procedure under local anesthesia, is one of the important and essential diagnostic procedure.
