Abstract

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is an important diagnostic method for the diagnosis of salivary gland tumors especially for intraparotid lesions with a high accuracy providing clinicians a possibility for preoperative planning. Because of their rarity and having similar cytological features with pleomorphic adenoma, intraparotid facial nerve schwannomas may not be recognized by FNAB. Here in this case report we evaluated the cytological findings that can help us for differentiating intraparotid schwannomas from pleomorphic adenomas. We think that not being able to find epithelial elements after a diligent search is the most important cytologic clue in the favour of schwannomas. With increasing number of reports about this issue, FNAB will help clinicians more for preoperative planning of the management of intraparotid schwannomas.

Özet

İnce iğne aspirasyon biyopsisi, yüzeyel yerleşimli tümörlerde önemli bir tanı aracıdır. Özellikle parotis yerleşimli kitlelerde yüksek doğru tanı oranlarıyla operasyon öncesi planlamaya büyük katkılarda bulunur. Parotis yerleflimli fasiyal sinir schwannomları ise, hem nadir saptanmaları hem de sitolojik özeliklerinin pleomorfik adenomlarla karşlması nedeniyle IIAB ile tanınamayabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda IIAB ile schwannomları pleomorfik adenomlardan ayıracak en önemli sitolojik bulgular değerlendirilerek yaymalarda epitelyal hücre bulunmamasının schwannomyönünde en önemli ipucu olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu konudaki çalışmalar arttıkça IIAB’nin, parotis yerleşimli schwannomlarda preoperatif tanı ve planlama konusunda klinisyenlere daha fazla yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
