Hyaluronic acid induced foreign body reaction mimicking neoplastic parotid cytology.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is highly accurate for detecting breast malignancies, concerns remain among cytopathologists about false-positive and false-negative diagnoses. Cell block (CB) preparations have been advocated by some cytopathologists as one of the methods to improve and consol...
