    Abstract:
    Data on cytological diagnosis of hepatic tumors (1996-2006) are evaluated. The potential of cytological examination for identification of the biological mechanism and histological pattern of such malignancies were demonstrated. Cytological examination of puncture bioptates established such diagnostic features as sensitivity (90%), specificity (88%), and effectiveness (89%) as well as prognostic significance of positive (99%) and negative (41%) results.
