Thyroid atypia of undetermined significance or follicular lesion of undetermined significance: an indispensable Bethesda 2010 diagnostic category or waste garbage?
OBJECTIVE The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (BSRTC) was introduced in thyroid cytology in 2007 and is now generally accepted. BSRTC categories include a morphologic description and risk of malignancy as well as follow-up suggestions in each group. However, the category entitled 'atypia of undetermined significance or follicular lesion of undetermined significance' (AUS/FLU...
متن کاملGroup consensus review minimizes the diagnosis of "follicular lesion of undetermined significance" and improves cytohistologic concordance.
We conducted a group consensus review of thyroid aspirates that were previously interpreted as "atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesion of undetermined significance" (AUS/FLUS) and followed by surgical interventions. The study aimed to investigate if consensus review would minimize the diagnosis of AUS/FLUS with an optimal interobserver agreement and also promote a better cytohist...
متن کاملMinimizing the diagnosis of "follicular lesion of undetermined significance" and identifying predictive features for neoplasia.
We used proposed standard morphologic criteria as a guideline to conduct a 10-year retrospective review of thyroid fine-needle aspiration specimens that were originally interpreted as "follicular lesion of undetermined significance" and followed by surgical intervention. We sought to investigate whether the indeterminate diagnosis could be minimized by assessing various cytomorphologic features...
متن کاملAtypia of Undetermined Significance/Follicular Lesion of Undetermined Significance (AUS/FLUS): Interpretation and Algorithm for Follow-Up
The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytology (TBSRTC) has proven to be an effective and robust thyroid fine needle aspiration (FNA) classification scheme to guide the clinical treatment of patients with thyroid nodules. However, a tendency of increasing diagnosis of atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesion of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS) is observed. This is commensur...
