A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out from January 2001 to December 2002 at Amalia Simoni Hospital of Camagüey in 56 patients with suspicion of lung neoplasia to whom Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNAB) was practiced.

The sample resulted to be useful in more than 92 % of patients, the most frequent localization sites were the superior lobules and the most valuable were those of the inferior.
