“…5 Malignant smears are mostly invasive ductal carcinoma in females. Only 11% smears were categorized as malignant in present study which is in concordance with a study published by Kamra et al 22 However, it is in contrast to the findings reported by Arul et al 6 and Madubogwu et al 23 who found much higher frequency (35%) and (34.6%) in their studies respectively. Similar higher frequencies (36.95% and 22%) are reported in local studies.…”

Background and Objectives: Breast lumps can be diagnosed in a short time by fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). Moreover, being cost effective, it is rendered the first choice by surgeons and patients. This study was carried out to outline the spectrum of breast lesions on FNAC in patients presenting with breast lumps in two tertiary care teaching hospitals of Punjab. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted from January, 2018 to October, 2019. Hundred cases of lumps in breast were taken from Sahara Medical College and Sughra Shafi Medical Complex, Narowal and Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. Cytological diagnosis was made and correlated clinically and histologically. Data analysis was done by Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24.0 and expressed as frequency and percentages. Results: Majority (58%) of cases were Class-2 smears on cytology while 11% were malignant and belonged to Class-5. Among the benign lumps, fibroadenoma was the most common (55.1%) followed by fibrocystic disease (17.2%) and acute mastitis (12%). Thirty-one cases were in grey zone i.e. Class-3 smears showing atypia and Class-4 smears that were suspicious of malignancy. Conclusion: By screening patients with lumps in breast, early and effective management can be made possible. Class 3 and 4 smears should be confirmed with excision and biopsy of the lump for conclusive diagnosis.

Background: Breast lesions shows a wide spectrum of lesions including inflammatory, benign, and malignant conditions. This spectrum varies according to sex, age, regional geographical factors. There are diverse regional and environmental conditions which affects the cytomorphological spectrum of breast lesions in Kumaon region. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out in Department of Pathology, Government Medical College from March 2015 to February 2019. A total of 414 cases were included in the study and lesions were divided into inflammatory, benign, and malignant conditions. Result: A total of 414 cases were included in the study and divided into three broad categories including inflammatory, benign, and malignant lesions. 65 cases (15.7%) were inflammatory, 295 cases were benign (71.26%), and 54 cases (13.04%) were malignant. Among benign lesions, most common age group was 21 to 30 years and in malignant lesions, most common age group were 31 to 40 years and 41 to 50 years. Conclusion: Wide spectrum of lesions can be seen in breast including inflammatory, benign, and malignant conditions. They may show overlap of signs and symptoms in different age groups. Different parameters like age, sex, laterality and quadrant helps in diagnosing its cytomorphological spectrum.

“…In the absence of stroma, numerous single bipolar nuclei are highly suggestive of the diagnosis. In the present study, fibroadenoma was the most common benign lesion which was seen most commonly in the younger [13,14,15] Out of the remaining 6 cases, 3 were mucinous carcinoma which showed moderately cohesive epithelial cells with abundant cytoplasm and moderate nuclear enlargement and atypia with abundant background mucin, one was a plasmacytoid variant of carcinoma a differential of plasmacytoma was also rendered in this 60 year old female and 2 were categorized as metaplastic carcinoma of which smears showed squamous differentiation along with high-grade carcinoma.…”

Introduction- The vast majority of the lesions that occur in the breast are benign. Much concern isgiven to malignant lesions of the breast because female breast cancer has now surpassed lungcancer as the leading cause of global cancer incidence in 2020. Fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC) has good sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in the diagnosis of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic breast lump thereby assisting in early diagnosis and further management. The currentstudy was done to study the incidence and the different cytomorphological patterns of palpablebreast lumps by FNAC and consequently compare the results with studies in the literature.Materials and methods- This is a retrospective study conducted from January 2018 to December2020 in a tertiary care hospital. The three-year data is obtained from the records maintained in theFNA clinic. The patients were counselled before the procedure and informed consent was taken.Results- A total of 1193 breast lump cases were analysed in this 3-year study, there were 19 malepatients all of them presented with gynaecomastia and 1177 female patients. The patient’s agegroup ranged from 12 to 86 years. The commonest age group with the lesions 31-40 yearscomprising 326 cases (27.32%) followed 21-30 years age group in the second place with 307 cases(25.7%). Conclusion- In this study the most common benign neoplastic and malignant neoplasticbreast lumps are fibroadenoma and infiltrating ductal carcinoma respectively. Fibrocystic disease ofthe breast is the most common non-neoplastic breast lump.
