Özet
Objective: As a fast and effective method, cytopathological examination of the pleural fluid is the diagnostic tool of choice in determining the etiology of a spectrum of inflammatory to neoplastic conditions. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of pleural cytology samples examined within a certain time period in determining the presence of malignant cells.
