Published: April 2012

Rhinoscleroma, also known as Mikulicz disease, is a chronic progressive disease caused by Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. The disease is uncommon in Delhi. There are no cytological references of this disease. We describe the cytological features which should alert the pathologist to rule out this entity, which needs to be treated early. Immunohistochemistry on histopathological material is a useful adjunct to the diagnosis.

Objective: This study aims to provide a literature review of FNAC-diagnosed plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) cases and present a case of PBL in an HIV patient diagnosed by FNAC.

Methods: A literature review was conducted across eight databases to compile information on FNAC-diagnosed PBL cases without restricting the site of involvement.

Results: The literature review included 23 PBL, with 13 (56.

Context: Myoepithelial carcinoma (MECA) represents < 1% percent of salivary gland (SG) tumors with a mean age of 55 years. These tumors can arise de novo or in association with pre-existing pleomorphic Adenoma (PA). The cytologic features of MECA overlap with other SG neoplasms including the more common benign entities like PA and myoepithelioma and can pose a diagnostic challenge.

Introduction And Objectives: Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), a unique non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), is a CD30-positive neoplasm of T-cell lineage. Its distinctive yet variable cytomorphology makes diagnosing fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) challenging. This study was undertaken to study the cytomorphology and the utility of immunocytochemical (ICC) stains on cytology in ALCL and to discuss their morphological differential diagnosis.

Introduction: The Papanicolaou Society of Cytopathology System for reporting Pancreaticobiliary Cytology (PSCPC) is a reliable method to classify pancreatic fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) smears. However, it is not without practical problems which can diminish the diagnostic accuracy of the cytological diagnosis.

Aims And Objectives: To determine the diagnostic pitfalls while reporting cytomorphology of pancreatic lesions according to PSCPC on correlating FNAC findings with histopathology.
