Background: There are studies reporting that the location of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasia (IPMN) predicts malignancy. Therefore, we evaluated the cyst location's relationship with malignancy, and the possibility of using cyst size and location to distinguish between non-main duct (non-MD)-IPMNs, mucinous cystic neoplasia (MCN), and cystic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of data from 122 patients with a definite cyto-histological diagnosis of non-MDIPMNs, LR-MCNs, and cystic PDACs via endoscopic ultrasound fine-needle aspiration between October 2011 and October 2020.
Aim Of Study: A comparison of papillary cancer variants diagnosed on the basis of cytological findings of pre-surgery puncture biopsies with a histological variant of papillary cancer.
Materials And Methods: The findings of two experts specializing in cytological diagnostics of thyroid nodules that diagnosed a possible variant of papillary cancer were compared with histological findings based on the study of material from surgically removed neoplasms.
Results: It was shown that the cytological examination at the pre-surgery stage has significant limitations in diagnosing the histological variant of the tumor, despite high sensitivity of method in diagnosing papillary cancer in general.

The typification of breast lumps with fine-needle biopsies is often affected by inconclusive results that extend diagnostic time. Many breast centers have progressively substituted cytology with micro-histology. The aim of this study is to assess the performance of a 13G-needle biopsy using cable-free vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB) technology.

Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is possibly the most useful investigation for the thyroid. However, conventional FNAC (C-FNAC) is limited by a high rate of inadequate samples. Ultrasound guided FNAC (US-FNAC) has been proposed as an alternative.
