Use of Intraoperative Frozen Section during Mediastinoscopy
Introduction: Staging of mediastinal lymph nodes (MLN) by mediastinoscopy can be of critical importance in assessing candidacy for lung resection. Mediastinoscopy is often performed as a sole procedure, with permanent pathology results guiding subsequent intervention. Our practice has been to perform mediastinoscopy followed by immediate surgical resection, as indicated, based on intraoperative...
متن کاملTouch Impression Cytology Versus Frozen Section as Intraoperative Consultation Diagnosis
The efficacy of Touch Imprint Cytology in the diagnosis of various pathological processes was evaluated and compared with Frozen Section in intraoperative consultation. We examined 60 cases from various sites of the body that were referred for intraoperative consultation. All cases were analyzed by Touch Imprint Cytology followed by Frozen section. We found diagnostic accuracy of both procedure...
متن کاملIntraoperative frozen section consultation: an analysis of accuracy in a teaching hospital.
This is a retrospective quality assurance study of all frozen sections done at The Aga Khan University Hospital during a six year period (1986 to 1991). There were 1,031 frozen sections out of a cumulative total of 42,985 surgical specimens (2.39%). Nine hundred and severity-six (94.66%) were concordant. In 92 (8.9%) fresh specimens were brought from other hospitals of Karachi, in 37 cases (3.5...
متن کاملIntraoperative molecular imaging can identify lung adenocarcinomas during pulmonary resection.
BACKGROUND More than 80,000 people undergo resection of a pulmonary tumor each year, and the only method to determine if the tumor is malignant is histologic analysis. We propose that a targeted molecular contrast agent could bind lung adenocarcinomas, which could be identified using real-time optical imaging at the time of surgery. METHODS Fifty patients with a biopsy-proven lung adenocarcin...
متن کاملDoes Preoperative Diagnosis of Endometrial Hyperplasia Necessitate Intraoperative Frozen Section Consultation?
BACKGROUND In women with endometrial hyperplasia, there is a risk for co-existent endometrial cancer when patients are subjected to immediate surgical treatment. AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of endometrial cancer and the accuracy of frozen section analysis at the time of hysterectomy among patients with endometrial hyperplasia, to reveal whether or not a preoper...
