Statistical Evaluation of the Pbkp_redictive Power of Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) of Salivary Glands: Results and Cytohistological Correlation


Abstract:

Fine needle aspiration (FNA) of the salivary glands was carried out on 97 patients. Diagnosis was confirmed by histological findings in 93 patients. There were 75 benign lesions (including 52 benign tumours) and 18 malignant lesions. In our series "positive pbkp_redictive value" of FNA was 0.900 and the negative pbkp_redictive value was 0.963. Thus, the probability of a false positive is 0.100 and of a false negative 0.037. © 1992, Gustav Fischer Verlag · Stuttgart · Jena · New York. All rights reserved.
