Abstract
INTRODUCTION. Fine needle aspiration biopsy allows the diagnosis of diseases as severe as cancer in childhood in a short period of time, and with great accuracy. This method has been established as a rapid, effective and economic technique in the biopsy of tumours of cavities such as the abdominal and the thoracic. The objective of this research was to check the application and validity of the diagnostic method in intrathoracic and intraabdominal tumours in children. METHODS: A retrospective study of the aspiration cytologies performed in intrathoracic and intraabdominal tumours at "William Soler" Teaching Children Hospital from January 1999 to December 2005 was conducted . In all of them the aspiration biopsy technique recommended in Stockholm was used, and the cytopuncture technique was also applied. RESULTS. The abdomen was the most frequent region and, in particular, the kidney. Twenty cytologies yielded negative (17.6 %), and 65 positive (57.5 %). There was a good positive cytohistologic correlation. Sensivity was 96.1 %; positive predictive value, 94.9 %; and efficiency, 92.8 %. CONCLUSIONS. Fine needle biopsy is an effective method for the diagnosis of intraabdominal and intrathoracic tumours in children. It has a great diagnostic value for surgeons, pediatricians and oncologists, and it also allows to plan in a efficient way the conduct to be followed with each patient.
