Direct-to-vial use of the AutoCyte PREP liquid-based preparation for cervical-vaginal specimens in three European laboratories.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the AutoCyte PREP direct-to-vial procedure to the conventional Pap smear in two large and similar patient groups compiled from the testing experience of three cytology laboratories in Switzerland and France. STUDY DESIGN: Randomly selected, large patient groups were evaluated using either the conventional Pap smear or the AutoCyte PREP direct-to-vial liquid-based preparation. Results were then compared statistically as to disease detection and sample adequacy. RESULTS: Specimen adequacy was greatly improved in the group tested with the AutoCyte PREP. PREP also demonstrated a significant reduction in ASCUS and ASCUS:LSIL+ ratios. The three laboratories participating in this review found significantly improved detection of both low and high grade SIL. Routine use of AutoCyte PREP for cervical cytology screening offers substantial improvements in adequacy and disease detection.
Cytological Techniques↗
[Breast cytology. Its place in the diagnosis of tumors].
Our work consists in the review of the experience in our hospital over 9 months and 110 cases in which tumours of the breast were seen. In most of them a clinical study, a radiological study, a thermographic study and a cytological and histological study was carried out. This shows that an examination of the ctyology is a very useful addition to the work-up to be carried out before therapy is started. The difficulty in cytology of the breast lies in the obviously serious problems in interpretation of the appearances, and explains why there are 2.7% of false negatives and 0.9% of false positives. All the same we think that we can find out how to lessen the number of these failures in diagnosis by a better knowledge of the traps to be found in breast cytology. Far from being a substitute for pathological anatomy, cytology is an indispensable complement to the study of the pathology of the breast.
Biopsy, Needle↗
[Abrikossof tumor in the esophagus].
Among the benign tumours of the oesophagus, the discovery of an Abrikossof tumour is exceptional. Although modern methods of investigation now permit recognition of this tumour and suspect its benign nature, only histology permits one to determine its precise nature, either by biopsy or by frozen section. Histogenetically, the schwann cell and histiocytic theories are not completely incompatible to the extent that they are considered from the point of view of general pathology, where there is evidence in favour of the mesoectodermic origin of the granular cell myoblastomas. In all cases, surgical excision is necessary. This resection of the myoblastoma permits a permanent cure.
