Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) smears from 16 cases of neuroblastoma are reviewed, and various cytomorphologic features helpful in diagnosing this tumor are described. Cytoplasmic processes were present in ten cases, and pseudorosettes in three cases. Electron microscopic study of FNAB samples revealed that all diagnostically important features, such as cell processes, neurosecretory granules, and synaptic cell junctions, could be recognized. These findings indicate that FNAB studied by light and electron microscopy is an effective method for diagnosing neuroblastoma.
回顾了16例神经母细胞瘤的细针穿刺活检（FNAB）涂片，并描述了有助于诊断该肿瘤的各种细胞形态学特征。10例出现细胞质突起，3例出现假菊形团。对FNAB样本的电子显微镜研究显示，所有重要的诊断特征，如细胞突起、神经分泌颗粒和突触细胞连接，均能被识别。这些发现表明，通过光学显微镜和电子显微镜研究的FNAB是诊断神经母细胞瘤的一种有效方法。
