Abstract

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology is now-a-days the preferred diagnostic modality in primary investigation of Head-neck Pathology, especially for that of parotid and thyroid lesions. However, FNAC nding some time reveals such phenomenal ndings, which lies outside even in the wildest realm of imagination, both in case of pathologist and the clinician. Five of such unusual cases are described here, each one having peculiar clinical presentation with cytology ndings posing considerable diagnostic challenge.
