Abstract

We retrospectively evaluated the accuracy of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in nonpalpable breast lesions detected by imaging techniques between 1995-1997. Our results confirm that FNAC is quite effective in the approach to patients with nonpalpable breast lesions. In particular, whwn smears are adequate, FNAC safely assists in ruling out the malignant lesions.
