Fine-needle aspiration cytology in lymphadenopathy of HIV-positive patients.
Diagnostic Cytopathology 2003 September
Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of 32 HIV-positive cases presenting with lymphadenopathy was performed to evaluate its role in this group of patients. For each case air-dried smears were stained with Leishman, hematoxylin and eosin, and Zeihl-Neelsen stains for acid fast bacilli (AFB). The results were tuberculous (TB) lymphadenopathy (15), reactive lymphadenopathy (10), acute lymphadenitis/abscess (5), and suspected malignancy (2). In seven cases of TB lymphadenitis findings were suggestive of TB since no AFB was demonstrable on the cytology smears. In TB lymphadenitis, two additional patterns besides necrotising granulomatous (4) and granulomatous (2) were observed. These were necrotising (6) and necrotising suppurative (3) patterns. FNAC is a simple, inexpensive, rapid investigative procedure which can reduce surgical excisions and provide definite guidelines about further management.
