Cytological Correlation of Benign Breast Diseases with Histopathology
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 10
Abstract
Fine needle aspiration cytology (fnac) has become the popular diagnostic tool in preoperative assessment of breast masses and it has high diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The major goal of fnac is to differentiate benign lesion which is managed conservatively from the malignant one which need radical therapy.] Present study is undertaken to the distribution of the various benign breast diseases by cytology. Cytological with histopathological reports correlation was done to know the diagnostic accuracy of fnac. Materials and Methods: Present study included cytology of 88 breast lesions with histopathological correlation. It is retrospective and prospective study. Results are expressed in descriptive data, percentages and diagnostic accuracy was calculated by comparing cytological and histopathological reports. Results: The study included 88 breast cases, which were diagnosed as benign on cytology. Fibroadenoma was the commonest benign breast disease. The diagnostic accuracy of fine needle aspiration in diagnosing benign breast lesion is 96.6% with false negative rate of 3.4%. Discussion and Conclusion: In present study fibroadenoma is the most common benign breast disease, which is in accordance with previous studies. Maximum number of cases was in the age group between 20 to 29 years which correlates with the previous literature that benign breast disease are more common in young adults.The diagnostic accuracy and false negative rate of cytology in detecting benign breast masses is comparable to most of the previous studies.
