Objective. To compare morphometric features between different types and grades of<br />

breast cancer. Methods. Morphometric analysis was performed using the Sform (Vamstec,<br />

Zagreb) software on the May-Grunwald-Giemsa stained fine needle aspiration cytology<br />

specimens of breast tissue. Selected specimens represented all breast smears in<br />

Clinical Hopsital Merkur from 2001 to 2005, malignant on cytological report and histologicaly<br />

confirmed. Investigated group consisted of 42 patients. The following features were<br />

investigated: area, outline, maximum radius, minimum radius, convex area, breadth,<br />

length, nucelar/cytoplasmatic ratio, form factor and elongation. Statistic 7.1 and chi2-<br />

test were used. Results. Morphometric analysis showed statistically significant differences<br />

between all investigated groups. Conclusion. Morphometric features considered<br />

individually were highly associated with type and grade of breast tumour.<br />

Lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LG) is currently called as extranodal angiocentric and<br />

angiodestructive immunoproliferative lesion with various degree of histological diferentiation<br />

and clinical agression. Histological grading and clinical manifestations are<br />

due to number of atypical large EBV+ B-lymphatic cells. We report case of 23-years old<br />

man, clinicaly presented with fever, sweating, and physical intolerance, and with bilateral<br />

pulmonary infiltrates of nodular type and destructive changes on the chest x-ray,<br />

previously treated with antituberculotics for 1,5 months. As the disease showed progression,<br />

diagnostic procedures extended to transbroncial lung biopsy and percutaneous<br />

fine needle aspiration with cytologic and histologic analysis of colected speciemens, all<br />

being not enough conclusive. LG was confirmed by open lung biopsy, followed by induction<br />

of corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide therapy. Very good clinical, functional and<br />

radiomorphologic improvement was achieved in a few weekls and remission of diseases<br />

maintanined in long term follow-up.<br />
