Abstract: Lymph node (LN) fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a common diagnostic procedure for lymphadenopathies. Despite the qualities and potentialities of LN-FNAC, the number of possible pathologies and the variety of clinical contexts represent a challenge and require a continuous upgrading of the procedure according to the emerging clinical requests and new technologies. This study presents an overview of the current and future impact of LN-FNAC on the care of patients with lymphadenopathy.<br />Competing Interests: Disclosure The authors have not to disclose.<br /> (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
