Fine needle aspiration (FNA) is a well-established and safe method for the rapid diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma. A few clinically important complications, including bleeding, infection and inflammatory reactions, result from FNA. In a small number of cases FNA has been followed by varying degrees of necrosis in some organs. In the literature there are a few reports associated with necrosis in a pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland following FNA.
A 27-year-old female had a two-year history of a right parotid mass. FNA revealed pleomorphic adenoma. A histologic diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma of the right parotid with infarction was made.
Necrosis associated with infarction may cause diagnostic problems. It is not a sufficient sign of malignant transformation.
细针穿刺抽吸术(FNA)是一种公认的、用于快速诊断多形性腺瘤的安全方法。FNA会引发一些具有临床重要性的并发症,包括出血、感染和炎症反应。在少数病例中,FNA术后某些器官会出现不同程度的坏死。文献中有一些关于腮腺多形性腺瘤FNA术后坏死的报道。
一名27岁女性有右侧腮腺肿物病史两年。FNA检查显示为多形性腺瘤。做出了右侧腮腺多形性腺瘤伴梗死的组织学诊断。
与梗死相关的坏死可能会导致诊断问题。它并非恶变的充分迹象。
