101 fine needle aspirations of 82 head and neck masses in 72 patients performed in one maxillofacial unit over a 5-year period were studied retrospectively. Satisfactory reports were obtained for 69 masses. Fifty six (81.2%) were confirmed histologically and 13 (18.8%) by clinical follow up of at least 6 months' duration. The sensitivity was 96.7% and specificity 100% with a positive predictive value of 100%. No complications were recorded. Provided the unsatisfactory specimens are correctly recognised this technique provides a useful aid in the management of head and neck masses.
回顾性研究了一个颌面科室在5年期间对72例患者的82个头颈部肿块进行的101次细针穿刺抽吸。69个肿块获得了满意的报告。56个(81.2%)经组织学证实,13个(18.8%)通过至少6个月的临床随访证实。敏感性为96.7%,特异性为100%,阳性预测值为100%。未记录到并发症。如果能正确识别不满意的标本,该技术对头颈部肿块的处理有很大帮助。
