Abstract :

In present study 40 cases of mammary carcinoma are studied during period of 2 years in Sheth L.G. General Hospital, AMC MET Medical college, Ahmedabad. Aim is to study cytological typing & grading of mammary carcinoma & to determine diagnostic accuracy of FNAC for mammary carcinoma. In present study we found 31 cases of IDC-NST, 1 case of tubular IDC, 2 cases of Medullary IDC, 1 case of Mucinous IDC, 3 cases of invasive lobular carcinoma & 2 cases of suspicious mammary carcinoma. From present study it is evident that Invasive ductal carcinoma-NST is most common type diagnosed on FNAC. Most of the carcinomas diagnosed are of grade I & grade II. Most of invasive ductal carcinoma-NST are from 41-60 years age group & are postmenopausal with most common site of upper outer quadrant.
