I just call: (high grade) malignant spindle cell neoplasm, defer for permanent section.
I also will do smear or touch print to look the cytologic features of the tumor.
When I was resident and fellow in frozen room on call, I routinly perform touch/smear/print slides to compare w/ tissue section slide. some tumor, cytology dx is better than tissue section, especially thyroid papillary ca, small cell ca, granular cell tumor, etc.
remember: always do touch/smear for solid tumor!!!
I mastered cytopathology dx skill through such practice.
