Abstract

The most important prognostic factor for lung carcinoma which is one of the most common cancer types, is the stage of the tumor. In this study, we assessed the prognostic importance of cytomorphological features of lung carcinoma in transthoracic fine needle aspiration biopsies with their clinicopathologic correlation.
