Abstract :
Introduction – Lymph nodes are common site of metastases for different cancers. Thus clinical recognition and urgent diagnosis of palpable lymphadenopathy is of paramount importance specially to differentiate between inflammatory lesions or metastatic or primary neoplastic tumor. Aims – To find out the role of FNAC in diagnosis of metastatic lesions of lymphnode and as a diagnostic tool for typing of tumor. Material & Method – Details of 750 patients with relevant history were taken in all lymphadenopathy cases.The study was carried out for 3 years at Municipal medical College, Ahmedabad Gujarat .FNAC was performed and stain with hematoxylin and eosin . Result – FNAC was done in total 750 cases of lymphadenopathy. Out of which 627 were benign lesions,110 were malignant lesions, while 13 cases were inconclusive. Among the malignant lesions 80 cases were of metsatatic lesions. Maximum number of metastatic lesions were found in cervical lymphnods and most common lesions were found metastic squamous cell carcinoma followed by metastatic adenocarcinoma. Conclusion– FNAC yielding a cellular material plays an important role in diagnosing metastatic lesions in the body.
