Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 7

Abstract

Non-neoplastic and neoplastic diseases involving liver pose a common clinical problem in their evaluation and management. Fine needle aspiration cytology of hepatic lesions done under ultrasonographic guidance help us immensely in reaching a definitive diagnosis for proper management and it`s planning. Methods: Ultra Sonography Guided Fine Needle Aspiration cytology was carried out on 386 cases at SMS Medical College, Jaipur from January 2014 to September 2015 which was represented by 39.12% female & 60.88% male patients Results: Total of 386 cases were studied for cytomorphological features and categorized into benign (3 cases), malignant (383cases) and further into primary (88 cases) and metastatic (295 cases). Most of the cases studied yielded cytomorphological features good enough to differentiate benign and malignant. Also it was possible to divide cases into primary and metastatic. Thus, providing worthy information for planning further management and ancillary investigations for patients.
