Algae in cytologic smears.
To desmonstrate the presence of algae in smears and establish their significance.Microscopic examination of smears stained by the Papanicolaou technique.We found 12 different species of algae, clustered in three categories: Cyanophita (blue algae), Chrysophyta (yellow algae) and Chlorophyta (green algae).Algae in smears are infrequently observed, with few bibliographic references. Their presence is due to intrinsic or extrinsic contamination. They may be confused with other structures, such as fungi, Charcott crystals or adenocarcinoma cells.
