Abstract
AIM : To study the role of FNAC in eyelid and orbital lesions in comparision to biopsy. Materials and methods : 40 patients with eyelid (24) and orbital lesions (16) were subjected to FNAC and then later to Biopsy and the results were compared and tabulated. Only firm eyelid lesions >5mm in size and anterior orbital lesions were included in the study. RESULTS : This shows that FNAC in eyelid and orbital lesions is a reliable diagnostic tool with histopathological correlation of >80 % in orbital lesions and correlation of 91.3%The sensitivity of FNAC for malignant lesions to be 88% and its specificity to be 100%.The positive predictive value of FNAC for malignant lesions is 100% and negative predictive value is 89%. CONCLUSION : FNAC gives rapid results and correlates highly with Tissue biopsy proven HPE, FNAC can be considered as a primary investigation in the diagnosis of eyelid and anterior orbital lesions and can be done safely as an outpatient procedure.
