The cytologic findings of needle aspiration biopsy of lymph nodes in malignant lymphoma are presented. In 42 of 49 cases, a correct cytologic diagnosis was rendered. There was one false-positive diagnosis. The diagnostic accuracy of needle aspiration cytology is high. It helps to select patients for further investigation and treatment, thereby avoiding unnecessary surgery in patients who present with lymphadenopathy. The technique is also useful in the staging work-up of patients with lymphoma and the diagnosis of recurrent disease during the follow-up period.
本文呈现了恶性淋巴瘤淋巴结针吸活检的细胞学检查结果。49例中有42例作出了正确的细胞学诊断。有1例假阳性诊断。针吸细胞学的诊断准确性很高。它有助于选择患者进行进一步检查和治疗，从而避免对出现淋巴结病的患者进行不必要的手术。该技术在淋巴瘤患者的分期检查以及随访期间复发性疾病的诊断中也很有用。
