Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Related Hepatocellular Nodular Lesions in Cirrhosis: Controversies, Challenges, and Expectations

<table>FNA of hepatocytes with large cell change. Two-cell-thick rows of hepatocytes show corresponding cellular and nuclear enlargement, maintaining normal nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio. Cellular polymorphism amongst sibling cells is clearly evident. Note intranuclear inclusions. Contrast with group of normal-sized hyperplastic hepatocytes (Papanicolaou, ×200).</table>
