DOI: https://doi.org/Breast diseases are common surgical cases that require accurate differentiation between benign and malignant lesions for appropriate treatment. This study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) versus Core-Needle Biopsy (CNB) in diagnosing breast lesions and explores the cytohistological spectrum of palpable breast lesions. Conducted as a cross-sectional retrospective study on 50 patients, the findings demonstrate that CNB outperforms FNAC in specificity, diagnostic accuracy, and reducing suspicious rates, thus establishing CNB as the superior diagnostic tool for breast lesions.
