Abstract
FNAC is effective in the diagnosis of plasmablastic lymphoma. Immunophenotypic profile and morphological features are crucial for accurate diagnosis and cell block is an excellent tool for IHC. The literature review confirms the importance of FNAC as a diagnostic tool for PBL.
The authors present a literature review of FNAC-diagnosed plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) cases and present a case of PBL in an HIV patient diagnosed by FNAC. Immunophenotypic profile and morphological features are crucial for accurate diagnosis and cell block is an excellent tool for IHC. The current study highlights the efficacy of FNAC in diagnosing PBL.
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.
