dc.description.abstractBackground: A prospective study was conducted in the Department of Pathology, GMC Patiala for two years on 60 patients with swellings of jaw seeking consultation in Rajindra Hospital, Patiala. Methods: Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) was done on all these patients followed by microscopic examination of the prepared slides and relevant clinical information was collected. The data was compiled and analysed statistically. In lesions where surgery followed FNAC, the comparison was done with histopathology and statistical values were calculated. Results: The results of the study were: non-neoplastic cases were 51.7% and neoplastic cases were 48.3%. Maximum cases were of chronic sialadenitis (30%) followed by pleomorphic adenoma (23.3%). Parotid gland was involved in maximum cases (60%). Biopsies or specimens for histopathological examination were received for 30 cases; maximum cases of which were diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma on histopathology. Among malignant tumors, mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the most common. Conclusion: On correlating the cytological and histopathological nature of salivary gland lesions, sensitivity of FNAC came out to be 75%, specificity 100% and accuracy was calculated as 93.3%.en_US
