Role of fine-needle aspiration cytology and fluid cytology in extra-pulmonary tuberculosis.

abstract：:We present the cytologic features and the immunocytochemical profile of four cases of chordoma on fine-needle aspiration biopsies. The physaliferous cells in signet-ring, pearl-like formations and the trabecular arrangement with rounded contours are distinctive. Other cell types and cellular arrangements are also desc...
