This article discusses the cytology of a parietal swelling in a 52-year-old man. The patient presented with a scalp mass that had been enlarging over the past 6 weeks. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core needle biopsy (CNB) were performed, and the pathological report revealed a giant cell lesion of the skull. The patient also exhibited high blood pressure, renal insufficiency, and hypercalcemia. A computed tomography scan revealed a soft tissue mass with destruction of the parietal bone. The article emphasizes the challenges in diagnosing brown tumours through FNA due to overlapping features with other giant cell lesions. Clinical information, imaging, and laboratory tests are crucial for an accurate diagnosis. [Extracted from the article] |
