Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNA) of renal masses and adrenal glands don't really differ from FNA of other sites. Nevertheless, only few series have been published on this subject, and surgery remains the most conventional attitude after the clinical and radiological diagnosis of a mass. The aim of this "lesson" is to demonstrate that this technique is accurate for kidneys and adrenal glands too.
