Utility of fine-needle aspiration cytology in the classification of leprosy.

abstract：:Fine-needle aspirates of three thyroid nodules displayed hypercellularity and papillary tissue fragments that suggested neoplasms. Neither microfollicles (either empty or with inspissated colloid) nor the characteristic nuclei of papillary carcinoma were evident. Surgical specimens contained adenomatoid nodules with f...
