Material and Methods: A total 124 patients with palpable lymph nodes of different age groups of both sexes were referred for FNAC in the department of pathology, Sri Krishna Medical College, Muzaffarpur during the period of November 2018 to October 2019. Among 124 cases, 6 cases were excluded from the study due to inadequate materials, hence we analysed 118 cases only. Result: Male to female ratio was 1.14:1. Tubercular lymphadenitis was the commonest lesions in 45 (38.13%) cases followed by reactive hyperplasia in 40 (33.13%) cases. Among the neoplastic lesion lymphoma (Hodgkin’s and Non hodgkin’s) was the commonest pathological findings in 10 (8.47%) cases followed by metastasis in 5 (4.23%) cases. Conclusion: Fine needle aspiration cytology is a primary diagnostic tool in the evaluation of lymph node lesions due to its low cost, simplicity and minimal invasiveness.
