Abstract
Fine-needle aspiration cytology of a pancreatic tumour revealed basaloid cells with immunocytochemical features of metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma.
This article describes a rare case of pancreatic metastasis of adenoid cystic carcinoma diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration cytology. Immunocytochemical staining for MYB and CD117 provided critical diagnostic support, highlighting the utility of liquid-based cytology in rare metastatic tumours.
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.
