Both flow and image cytometry have routine, reliable methods for ploidy analysis, each with its dbacks. LSC offers a non-destructive and non-consumptive method of analysis that allows repeated sample analysis as well as storage for later re-evaluation. Owing to the extremely small sample requirement, specimens can be obtained through minimally invasive procedures such as fine-needle aspirate biopsies or simple swabs. Tumors located at sites unsuitable for routine biopsy can be analyzed even on an out-patient basis.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the predictive factors for drainage in patients hospitalized with cervical lymphadenitis in the Pediatrics Infectious Diseases Department and to differentiate the recovery time between patients who received antibiotic treatment only and those who received drainage for their lymphadenitis.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 169 patients selected for this study, aged 1 month to 18 years, who were followed up with a diagnosis of cervical lymphadenitis between January 2011 and December 2019. Clinical features such as sex, age, physical examination findings, laboratory findings, imaging findings, and antibiotic treatments were retrospectively reviewed.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA integration into the host cell genome is reportedly a major cause of liver cancer, and a source of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). High HBsAg levels can alter immune responses which therefore contributes to the progression of HBV-related disease. However, to what extent integration leads to the persistent circulating HBsAg is unclear.

We describe a series of five patients with bilateral parotid enlargement as a sequalae to envenomation by the common krait (Bungarus caeruleus). Fine-needle aspiration cytology of the parotid gland was performed in four cases. The cytology revealed a mild lymphocytic inflammatory response in a red blood cell mixed proteinaceous background.

Background: Although the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) has improved the diagnosis and management of salivary gland lesions, determining the risk of malignancy (ROM) for AUS and SUMP categories remains challenging. We investigated the role of interventional cytopathologists in refining the differential diagnosis of these categories.
Methods: We searched for salivary gland fine-needle aspirations (FNAs) performed at our Institution since the publication of the first edition of MSRSGC.
Introduction: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a highly sensitive and accurate method for identifying pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs). However, research on grading and assessing the Ki67 proliferation index in FNA samples is limited.
Methods: This study analyzed 335 EUS-FNA cases performed between 2016 and 2022, of which 12 cases of PanNET were further evaluated.
