Abstract
Pap smears play a role in detecting extrauterine serous tumours in asymptomatic women. Certain cytopathologic and histopathologic findings combined with relevant clinical and radiologic findings indicate the possibility of primary peritoneal serous tumours. Cellblock immunohistochemistry is a valuable confirmatory diagnostic tool.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Cytopathology is to publish articles relating to those aspects of cytology which will increase our knowledge and understanding of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of human disease. It contains original articles and critical reviews on all aspects of clinical cytology in its broadest sense, including: gynaecological and non-gynaecological cytology; fine needle aspiration and screening strategy.
Cytopathology welcomes papers and articles on: ultrastructural, histochemical and immunocytochemical studies of the cell; quantitative cytology and DNA hybridization as applied to cytological material.
