Adenoviral cytopathic changes in pleural fluid: A unique cytological presentation mimicking malignancy.

abstract：:Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an acknowledged method for diagnosing prostate cancer. False-positive results are uncommon, but concerns have been raised that prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) could be misinterpreted as carcinoma. Therefore, we attempted to describe cytological features of PIN. Cells...
