CSF Cytology for Malignant Cells

CSF Cytology for Malignant Cells is used to detect cancer cells in cerebrospinal fluid, aiding in diagnosing metastatic or primary central nervous system malignancies. A lumbar puncture collects CSF, which is examined microscopically for abnormal cells. Preparation includes fasting and maintaining sterile conditions. Risks involve headache, bleeding, or infection from the procedure. The presence of malignant cells confirms cancer involvement, often seen in leptomeningeal metastasis. False negatives can occur with low tumor cell count or improper sample handling.
