title: Diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration biopsy for breast fibroadenoma diagnosis.
abstract: The diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration biopsy was estimated in the study. Cytological features, which allow us to diagnose and distinguish fibroadenoma from other breast benign lesions, were also examined. The diagnostic effectiveness was estimated depending on the observance of the described criteria (features) characteristic for the breast fibroadenoma by a comparative analysis of cytological findings in three diagnostic centers.
