Role of Serous Fluid Cytology in Both Non-Malignant and Malignant Lesions With Emphasis on Cytomorphology of Rare Metastatic Malignancies to Serous Cavity
Abstract:Context: Serous effusion cytology is an important investigation for diagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases. Malignant cells in serous uid cytology indicates advanced stage. To evaluate the utility of serous ui Aims: d cytology in differential diagnosis of malignant and nonmalignant serous effusions and to emphasize the cytomorphology of rare metastatic malignancies. The importance of cell block with immunocytochemistry for diagnostically challenging cases was also highlighted. T Settings and Desig… Show more
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.
