ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a valuable, noninvasive technique for head and neck pathology diagnosis. The objective of case images was to highlight the utility of FNAC for diagnosing suspected cases of ameloblastoma.METHOD:
FNAC smears of suspected cases of ameloblastoma were evaluated using their cellular and stromal features.RESULTS:
Cellular features and background of smears exhibited characteristics of ameloblastoma. Predominant features included clusters of ameloblast-like cells and spindle cells in a myxoid background.CONCLUSION:
Careful evaluation of FNAC helps diagnose ameloblastomas and must be considered a vital diagnostic tool.Palavras-chave
