Background: Lymphoma represents one of the major health problems all over the world. Flow cytometry (FCM) can be used on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) from lymph node as an ancillary technique. Aim of the study was to assess the utility of flowcytometry (FCM) in diagnosis and differentiation of reactive hyperplasia and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) on FNAC.Methods: The study was carried out on 50 cases, 25 each of reactive hyperplasia and suspicious or confirmed NHL on FNAC. FCI was performed with a complete panel of antibodies on FACS Canto II FCM.Results: All 25 cases of reactive hyperplasia on FNAC were polyclonal on FCM. FCM could be performed in 22 cases (88%) out of 25 suspicious NHL and in three cases the material was inadequate on aspirate. Out of 22 cases of NHL on FNAC 17 cases (77.30%) were diagnosed as B-NHL on FCM. Light chain restriction was demonstrated in 15/17 cases. With the help of FCI, 6 cases were diagnosed as small cell lymphocytic lymphoma, one case as mantle cell lymphoma, one case as follicular lymphoma, and 9 cases as B-NHL-NOS. Histopathology diagnosis was available in nine cases and were in concordance to FCM. Sensitivity of combined FNAC and FCM in sub-classification was 77.30% (17/22). Four cases showed discordance between FNAC and FCM.Conclusion: We concluded that FCM enhances the diagnostic ability of FNAC, playing a crucial role in a rapid and accurate differential diagnosis between reactive hyperplasia, B-NHL and T-NHL.

Needle Aspiration Cytology

Peripheral lymphadenopathy is frequently due to a local or systemic benign infectious disease. However, it could be a manifestation of underlying malignancy. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) acting as a reliable diagnostic tool to find out the cause underlying the lymphadenopathy enables the clinician to plan appropriate management for each patient.The present study was undertaken to assess the utility of FNAC in evaluation of peripheral lymphadenopathy cases in different age groups and sex and to study the cytomorphological patterns in these cases.A retrospective and prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Pathology, Hind Institute of Medical Sciences over the duration of 2 years. A total of 331 lymph node FNA aspirates were studied. Aspirated material was routinely stained with Haematoxylin & Eosin and Papanicolauo stains. Ziehl Neelsen stain was used wherever required.Most of the patients were in the age group of ≤15 years (117/331). Cervical lymphnodes were the most commonly involved sites (222/331). The largest group of lesions belonged to the non-neoplastic category (227/331). Only 54/331 cases were in the neoplastic category. Amongst the non-neoplastic lesions, granulomatous lymphadenitis comprised the majority (128/277). Amongst the neoplastic lesions, 8 cases showed features of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL); where as 3 cases were of Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL). Non-neoplastic lesions were more common in the younger age group (117/257); where as neoplastic lesions were more common in the older age group (27/54).FNAC is a reliable method of diagnosing the pathology underlying enlarged superficial lymph nodes; thus acting as a triage to distinguish the cases with a suspicion of significant disease. At the same time, it also provides material for ancillary studies especially in lymphoproliferative lesions.
