Cytologic diagnosis of tuberculous lymphadenitis in children by fine needle aspiration
Abstract
One hundred consecutively diagnosed cases of tuberculous lymphadenitis in children have been analysed retrospectively. All cases were stained by May Grunwald Giemsa for cytomorphology and Ziehl Neelsen stain for acidfast bacilli (AFB). In 52 cases the material was sufficient and AFB cultures were possible. A diagnosis of tuberculosis was made when smears showed epithelioid cell granulomas or AFB on either smears or culture. M. tuberculosis and atypical mucobacteria were cultured in 26 and 3 cases respectively. In 6 cases the diagnosis of tuberculosis would have been missed but for culture studies, the cytologic smears were necrotic and stains for AFB negative.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
