Abstract
Undifferentiated uterine sarcoma is an extremely rare cytologically challenging finding in pleural effusions undistinguished from the more common causes of malignant effusions. Cellblock is a valuable diagnostic tool when combined with certain diagnostic clues, relevant immunoprofile and knowledge of the patient's history.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Cytopathology is to publish articles relating to those aspects of cytology which will increase our knowledge and understanding of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of human disease. It contains original articles and critical reviews on all aspects of clinical cytology in its broadest sense, including: gynaecological and non-gynaecological cytology; fine needle aspiration and screening strategy.
Cytopathology welcomes papers and articles on: ultrastructural, histochemical and immunocytochemical studies of the cell; quantitative cytology and DNA hybridization as applied to cytological material.
