A lump is a lump until its contents are examined. The fastest and easiest way to make a diagnosis in a growth of the skin or subcutis is cytological examination. Skin tumours are readily accessible for fine needle aspiration and the microscopic examination of these samples often leads to a definitive diagnosis or at least to some idea of its origin.
In this video the most common skin tumours will be discussed and their cytological properties illustrated.
