Popis: WOS:000622313800001 The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy rates of the patients who underwent an operation for parotid mass, by comparing their fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) cytology results with the final pathology. A total of 136 patient files of those who applied to Otorhinolaryngology clinic due to parotid mass and underwent parotidectomy procedure between 2010 and 2020 at a tertiary center were scanned retrospectively. Database on patient age, gender, preoperative FNAB results, and final surgical histopathology results was created. The mean age of the patients was 48.26 +/- 17.37 Superficial parotidectomy was performed to 108 (79.4%) and total parotidectomy to 28 (20.6%) of the patients. The sensitivity of FNAB was found as 85.2%, specificity as 96.2%, positive predictive value as 85.2%, negative predictive value as 96.2% and accuracy as 94.0%. It is found that FNAB has the high specificity and high negative predictive value with high diagnostic accuracy on detecting preoperative malignancy in parotid gland. We think that FNAB is a significant, necessary and safe method in the diagnosis of parotid lesions in preoperative sense.
