[Cytological variants of lymphogranulomatosis]

It is shown that in the course of a cytological investigation it was possible not only to diagnose lymphogranulomatosis but in the overwhelming majority of cases to determine a morphological variant of the disease in accordance with Lukes et al. classification. Cytological pictures of the three histological variants of lymphogranulomatosis are described: mixed-cellular, reticular and nodular sclerosis. Cytological criteria for diagnosis of nodular sclerosis are identified.
