Retroperitoneal Tumor: A Silent Trespasser – Role of Image-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology with Histopathological Correlation in Early Diagnosis

Conclusion: Image-guided FNAC is highly sensitive and specific for early diagnosis of an otherwise silent retroperitoneal mass. It saves patient from meticulous surgical procedures for diagnostic reasons and allows more rational planning of management. Knowledge of the distribution of tumors by age group helps to narrow down differential diagnoses.Acta Cytologica
