Abstract
Aim and Objectives: To study the spectrum of soft tissue tumors, the diagnostic accuracy of cytology in soft tissue tumors and clinicomorphological correlation. 
 Material and Methods: This Hospital based cross sectional prospective study was conducted between Jan 2018 to May 2020 in the Department of Pathology, Subharti Medical College and associated Chhatrapati Shivaji Subharti Hospital, Meerut, India. A total number of 189 cases of FNAC amongst which 25 cases had both histo and cytopathological correlation were taken. Results: In this study of 189 cases of fine needle aspiration cytology of soft tissue tumours, 25 cases underwent histopathological correlation. 4 cases were true positive, 20 cases were true negative, 1 case was false negative and no false Positive cases were seen. Hence, sensitivity of 80 % and specificity of 100% were noted in the diagnosis. Conclusion: Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Soft tissue tumours can be used for primary diagnosis of Soft tissue tumours as it helps in distinction between benign and malignant cases and also for the diagnosis of metastatic soft tissue deposits in conjunction with relevant clinical data and radiological findings
