There were 265 visitors receiving fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the breast in our OPD from January 2004 to December 2012. We used our Laboratory Information System (LIS) to collect the data of FNAC, and checked their following histology. They were agefrom 17 to 99 years old with mean 51.06. Only 69 visitors received a further biopsy or excisional histologic confirmation. Our FNAC accurate diagnostic rate was 85.7%, and without false positive in C4nor C5. However, the false negative rate was 27.2%in C2. To our knowledge, FNAC is a good method for screening breast cancer, even if some more accurate methods have been used today, and the sensitivity and accurate diagnostic rate of FNAC is dependent on the triple assessment and their expert experiences. We also reviewed the literature about FNAC and their further application in future. |
