Significance of cellblock from EBUS-TBNA of neoplastic intra-thoracic lesions (n=40)

1	Malignancy was not detected on EBUS cytology but on cellblock	2 cases
2	Cellblock with ICC helped in subtyping of malignancy	15 cases
3	Cellblock helped in subtyping of malignancy on the basis of tumour morphology	4 cases
4	EBUS-TBNA with cellblock provided the diagnosis on the aspiration of the primary mass, while the biopsy of the mass was inadequate	1/8 cases
5	EBUS-TBNA with cellblock provided the diagnosis on the aspiration of the mediastinal node, while the biopsy of the primary mass was inadequate	3/10 cases
