Introduction: Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology is a relatively simple, inexpensive and rapid diagnostic procedure for identifying cause of lymphadenopathy without need for surgical procedures. This study aims to explain the pattern of lymphadenopathy seen on fine needle aspiration cytology in a tertiary level hospital in KathmanduMaterials and Methods: This study was conducted at Shree Birendra Hospital Nepal. Cases of lymph node FNAC done in the years 2073 and 2074 BS were included in the study. The cases were classified into reactive lymphadenitis, granulomatous lymphadenitis, tubercular lymphadenitis, lymphomas, leukemias, and metastases.Results: A total of 215 patients were included in the study, ranging in age from 2 to 84 years, out of which 98 were female and 117 were male. Reactive lymphadenitis was the most common diagnosis (n=126; 58.6%), followed by granulomatous lymphadenitis (n=34; 15.8%) and tubercular lymphadenitis (n=18; 8.4%). There were 18 cases of metastatic malignancies, 15 cases of suppurative lymphadenitis, and 2 cases of Hodgkin lymphoma and 2 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Conclusions: Reactive lymphadenitis is the most common type of lymphadenopathy encountered in FNAC, while in the elderly, metastases are more common.

Background: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a first line investigation in cervical swellings. The etiology varies from an inflammatory process to a malignant condition.Methods: The study was carried out in department of Pathology, Government Medical College, affiliated with government hospital in Gujarat. There were 470 patients with cervical swelling in a period from January 2017 to December 2017. Patients with thyroid swelling (swelling moves with deglutition) were excluded from the study. FNAC procedure was performed, smears prepared, stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H and E), May Grunwald Giemsa (MGG) and Pap stain. Zeihl Neelsen stain was carried out when required. Patient history, local examination findings and microscopic findings were recorded.Results: Total 470 patients, age ranged from 2 months to 90 years were studied. There were 286 males and 184 females. There were 449 cases in which conclusive opinion given. 111 cases were neoplastic and 338 cases were non-neoplastic. Various cytological diagnosis were; 207 cases of granulomatous lymphadenitis (tuberculosis), 1 case of filarial lymphadenitis, 72 cases of chronic reactive hyperplasia, 25 cases of acute suppurative inflammation, 1 case of sialadenitis, 10 cases of keratinous cyst, 6 cases of benign cystic lesion, 12 cases of lipoma, 4 cases of lymphoproliferative lesion, 1 cases of benign appendage tumor, 2 cases of mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 103 cases of metastasis and 5 cases of non Hodgkin lymphoma.Conclusions: FNAC is a simple, quick, inexpensive and minimally invasive technique to diagnose cervical swellings. It can differentiate the infective process from neoplastic one and avoids unnecessary surgeries.
