ABSTRACT
This study comprised 52 cases of FNA biopsy specimens of breast lumps. The smears were stained by H and E and a modified silver one step staining technique for demonstration of AgNORs. A correlation was done between the number, size and distribution of AgNOR and the cytological findings shown by H and E stained FNA specimens. Using t-test AgNOR revealed a significant difference between the total number of AgNORs of 12 benign breast lesions [3.82] and of those 36 malignant cases [11.27]. Silver staining AgNOR results of the 4 suspicious cases were in favor of malignancy
