Abstract

Objectives: The present study aims to describe and discuss the technique and relevance of FNAC application in clinical practice. Method: This is an integrative literature review. Results: Fine Needle Aspiration Puncture (FNAC) can be indicated in cysts, benign and suspicious solid nodules, complex solid-cystic lesions, axillary lymph nodes and postsurgical seromas. Papillary effusion cytology should be requested and interpreted with caution, only in selected cases, due to the low positive predictive value of the method, with false negative rates around 50%. When associated with clinical and imaging exams, FNAC offers a specificity rate of 100% and a sensitivity of 90%.
