The observation of myoepithelial cells bordering abnormal epithelial cells in fine-needle aspiration smears of two unusual breast lesions helped to prevent misdiagnosis of these lesions as malignant. The presence of myoepithelial cells has been a well-established criterion for histologically benign lesions. Their presence or absence appears to be equally valuable in fine-needle aspiration smears of breast lesions.
在两例罕见乳腺病变的细针穿刺涂片检查中，观察到与异常上皮细胞相邻的肌上皮细胞，这有助于防止将这些病变误诊为恶性。肌上皮细胞的存在一直是组织学上良性病变的一个既定标准。在乳腺病变的细针穿刺涂片中，它们的存在与否似乎同样有价值。
