dc.description.abstractFNAC should be considered as the part of routine preliminary investigation of orthopaedic patients presenting with musculoskeletal tumorous lesions. A total of 110 cases were screened cytologically in the background of clinical, radiological findings and biochemical tests. Primary malignant tumor formed the major entity accounting for 56% of the cases, while benign tumors comprised 8% only. Overall success rate of needle aspiration cytology in diagnosing tumors and tumor like lesions was 92%. Giant cell tumors of bone was the most common malignant lesion observed in 15 cases (30%), followed by Ewing's Sarcoma in 5 cases (10%). Cytologic diagnosis was completely compatible with the final histopathologic diagnosis in 82.3% of cases.en_US
