title: [Application of the puncture biopsy in diagnosis of malignant tumors of suprarenal glands].
abstract: Possibilities of application of the fine-needle aspiration puncture biopsy (FNAPB) in diagnosis of suprarenal glands tumors were studied. Of 43 patients, to whom FNAPB was performed, in 27 the suprarenal gland tumor was diagnosed, in 11--renal tumor, in 5--the puncture biopsy material occurred noninformative. Of 27 patients with tumor of suprarenal gland in 15 it was malignant, in 11--benign adenoma and cyst of suprarenal gland were revealed. FNAPB of the suprarenal gland tumor is a safe, informative and in some situations curative method. FNAPB is recommended for diagnosis of primarily revealed tumors of suprarenal glands more than 2 cm in diameter. The procedure should be performed by specially trained physician, who determines technical conditions of its conduction by himself and possesses the method o fultrasonography. Data of cytological investigationspermits to differentiate benign and malignant tumor, to determine the tumor type, what constitutes diagnostic background for the tactic choice of surgical intervention and the disease prognosis.
