Journal Title: International Journal of Bio-Technology and Research (IJBTR) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 1

Abstract

Aims & Objectives • To study disease pattern of lymph node on FNAC. • To eastablish role of FNAC as diagnostic modality in rural India. Materials and Methods A cross sectional study of 114 cases of lymphadenopathy presenteding to the department of pathology at Tripura Medical College and Dr. BRAM Teaching Hospital for 1 year 11 months from January 2016 to December 2017 was taken for the study. FNAC was performed with 22-24 Gauge needle and 10 ml syringe. Most smears were dried and stained with leishman stain and others were kept for Ziehl Neelsen staining whenever a diagnosis of granulomatous disease was made and also in cases where abundant necrosis and suppuration were seen.
