Journal of Endourology, 10/22/08
Andonian S et al. - The number of needle passes and microscopic slides examined did not correlate with sample adequacy or diagnostic yield of renal FNAC. Sample adequacy as determined by Diff Quik staining correlated with diagnostic FNAC. Despite the retrospective nature of this study, a cytotechnologist should be present during the FNA procedure to ensure adequate samples have been obtained to increase the diagnostic yield of renal FNAC.
