Fine needle aspiration biopsy of a hepatic mass. An example of a near error.
1989
Material obtained by fine needle aspiration (FNA) from a hepatic mass showed conflicting features in Papanicolaou-stained smears and hematoxylin-and-eosin-stained cell block sections. A sarcomatous lesion (metastatic pleomorphic liposarcoma) was suggested by the smears while the cell block sections revealed the lesion to be a lipid-rich hepatocellular carcinoma. The nature of this apparent discrepancy is discussed.
