Atlas Interpretation:
Type of Preparation: ThinPrep/ LBP
Magnification: High
Clinical History: 32 year old, routine cervical screening, Day 10 of cycle
Interpretation:
NILM: Histiocytes
Cytomorphologic Criteria: Histiocytes with eccentric round to oval nuclei and foamy cytoplasm.
Explanatory Notes: At low power, histiocytes and atypical metaplastic cells may be confused. The rounder shape of most cells in liquid-based preparations as compared to conventional preparations may lead to uncertainty about the cell type, however assessment under high power usually clarifies this.
