Lymph node cytology in Wegener's granulomatosis.
We report on cytological findings on aspirates from the cervical lymph node from a case of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). The diagnostic utility of technique in diagnosing a sizable minority of WG patients who present with cervical lymphadenopathy is discussed. We outline an approach to diagnosis of necrotising granulomatous lesions in aspirates from lymph nodes in a tabular form.
