Abstract

A prospective study is presented in which role of FNAC in cervical lymphadenopathy was assessed. This study was carried out in Surgical Unit-I, Allama Iqbal Medical College Jinnah Hospital, Lahore from 1.1.1997 to 31.12.1997 worked over one year. Initially one hundred and seventy eight patients were aspirated but the smears of twenty six patients (14.6%) were not suitable for cellular interpretation. So ultimately one hundred and fifty two cases were included. The aims of the study were to find out the sensitivity and accuracy of FNAC and to correlate the results of FNAC with histopathology findings.
