title: Fine-needle aspiration diagnosis of HIV-related conditions.
abstract: The authors highlight the more common conditions that can be diagnosed by FNA, offering examples to illustrate how material obtained from FNA can be triaged for effective patient management. They also discuss the HIV-related changes found in body fluids and other cytologic specimens, such as those from bronchoalveolar lavage and induced sputum.
