Abstract

Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and imprint smears were prepared In 50 cases of cervical lymphadenopathy. The results were confirmed by excisional biopsy. The FNAC established diagnosis in 89.8% and imprint smears in 90% cases. Aspiration cytology was found to be simple and reasonable accurate method of diagnosis. Though, comparable results were obtained by imprint smears, yet this requires open biopsy.
