[Determination of the histostructure of cutaneous melanoblastomas by cytologic study of smears].
The work was undertaken to reveal the opportunities of cytological investigations of smears for recognition of the skin melanoblastoma histostructure. Three variants of smear cytograms corresponding to histological types of melanoblastomas were differentiated: epithelioid-cellular, spindle-cell and mixed. In 167 patients press-smears from the tumor surface were studied cytologically with subsequent pathomorphological assay of radically removed neoplasms. Skin melanoblastomas were revealed in all these patients, an epithelioid-cell type - in 119, mixed - in 37, spindle-cell - in 11.
