  • Title: Fine needle aspiration of seminal vesicles: aspects of normal seminal cells.
    Author: Raica M.
    Journal: Rom J Morphol Embryol; 1994; 40(1-2):41-4. PubMed ID: 7640375.
    Abstract:
    Seminal vesicle cytology was studied in 18 patients admitted with diseases of the prostate, in whom fine needle aspiration by transrectal route was performed. Three cell-types are described: principal, basal and degenerative forms. Nuclear and cytoplasmic peculiarities of the principal and basal cells are revealed, discussing their value in the differential diagnosis from well-differentiated carcinoma of the prostate. It is emphasized the importance of pseudoatypical aspects of seminal cells--considered as a source for false positive results in FNAB of the prostate.
