Abstract

Background- The diagnostic detection of malignant cells in effusions serves as a mainstream diagnostic tool and a predictor of the spread of diseases. Aim-To compare diagnostic efficacy of liquid based cytology (LBC) with conventional cytopreparatory techniques of pleural, peritoneal and pericardial fluids. Methodology - 110 peritoneal, pleural and pericardial effusions were received from indoor of various departments, microscopic examination was carried out by conventional and SurePath LBC method. For each case scoring was done for cellularity, cell morphology, distribution and background. They were classified as Non-neoplastic, suspicious for malignancy and malignant. Results - LBC showed better cell yield, morphology, distribution and background. Non-neoplastic lesions were maximum in number and constituted 78 (70.9%) cases, 8 (7.3%) cases were suspicious for malignancy, 22 (20%) malignant cases and 2 cases were unsatisfactory for evaluation. Conclusion- compared to conventional method, LBC was superior in making diagnosis.
