Cytopathology is an important part of pathology that is used to diagnose disease on the cellular level. The application of the cell block (CB) technique plays a vital role in cytological diagnosis, as blocks and slides can be further used for special stains, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and molecular pathological analysis. Several methods for making CBs have been reported, but their procedures and cellular yield are still deemed unsatisfactory. In this article, we used gellan gum (GG) as an adjuvant for CBs, which resulted in higher cellular yield with simpler procedures.
