Reproducibility of the & #8220;International academy of cytology yokohama system for reporting breast cytology & #8221; & #8211; A retrospective analysis of 70 cases

Conclusions: Inter-observer agreement of three (70.48%) cytopathologists was substantial. Agreement can be improved by combining certain categories, especially “Suspicious” and “Malignant”. Technical quality limitation plays a significant role in a proportion of cases, mainly the “Atypical” and “Suspicious of malignancy” categories. Application of the IAC YSRB system in day-to-day practice will increase the inter-observer agreement.
