Cytological diagnosis in a series of 153 skin lesions is presented. The diagnosis in each case has been compared with the clinical assessment and, where available, the biopsy result (85 lesions). Of 131 basal cell carcinomas, a cytological diagnosis was possible in 124 while biopsyl failed to identify two of the 73 lesions studied. A correct cytological diagnosis was made in five squamous cell carcinomas and in one malignant melanoma. Basal cell papillomas and solar keratoses were not accurately identified. We thus conclude that with this very simple, rapid, and inexpensive method a clinical diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma is reliably confirmed with advantages for both the clinic and the laboratory.
本文介绍了对153例皮肤病变的细胞学诊断情况。将每例的诊断结果与临床评估进行了比较，并在可行的情况下与活检结果（85例病变）进行了比较。在131例基底细胞癌中，124例可进行细胞学诊断，而活检未能识别出所研究的73例病变中的2例。5例鳞状细胞癌和1例恶性黑色素瘤做出了正确的细胞学诊断。基底细胞乳头状瘤和日光性角化病未被准确识别。因此，我们得出结论，通过这种非常简单、快速且廉价的方法，可以可靠地确诊基底细胞癌，对临床和实验室都有好处。
