Comparison of Two Types of Biopsy in Suspicious Axillary Lymph Nodes

This prospective study was planned to evaluate the superiority of a core needle biopsy device with a special cryo-assisted rotational design (Cassi II, USA) compared with FNA for biopsy of intermediately suspicious lymph nodes. Eligible patients would be randomized to one of two arms by 1:2 : Core with FNA or FNA alone. The diagnostic accuracy and adverse outcome of core and FNA would be compared.
