Abstract
A cost-benefit analysis of biopsy techniques for deep cervical lesions reveals that the aspiration biopsy is superior in terms of cost, speed, and morbidity but inferior in accuracy. Aspiration is most accurate for the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma in cervical lymph nodes. An early diagnosis of malignancy by needle aspiration can be of benefit in several stages of patients management.
