Abstract
<p>Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is used as a valuable method for examining suspected salivary gland lesions. It is a simple, costeffective, and minimally invasive procedure with high specificity and sensitivity. Due to the cellular heterogeneity and overlapping architectural features, it can be difficult to distinguish between non-neoplastic processes, benign lesions, and/or malignancies in salivary glands on routine stains. Cell block methods are currently replacing surgical biopsy-based diagnostic methods on the basis of utilizing aspirates from FNAC with a rapid and reliable potential for reaching a conclusive diagnosis. Ancillary investigations including a panel of immunohistochemical markers are frequently applied on cytology specimens in the era of precision diagnostics to offer a specific diagnosis and even prognostic information for optimal patient care.</p>
