We described two examples with misleading presentations to draw attention to the role<br />
of clinical cytology as a part of multidisciplinary approach to breast lesions. In the first<br />
case - Paget’s disease of the nipple, there was no obvious clinical and radiological evidence<br />
of breast cancer, while the second case – primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the<br />
breast imitated advanced breast carcinoma. The question is whether accurate and fast<br />
diagnoses can be made without cytological examinations. It must be kept in mind that<br />
first-hand clinical information and contact with the patient is necessary in rendering<br />
accurate cytological diagnoses.<br />
