Unusual presentation of granulocytic sarcoma in the breast: a case report and review of the literature.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of oral lesions has not been widely utilized for diagnosis due to rarity and diversity of lesions, peculiar anatomy of maxillofacial region, difficulty in aspirating these lesions, and limited experience. Aim of this study was to determine the role of FNAC in the diagno...
