Evaluation of Solitary Thyroid Nodule with Correlation of Preoperative Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology with Postoperative Histopathology
Introduction localized thyroid enlargement with rest of the thyroid apparently normal is clinically defined as solitary nodule of thyroid. STN is seen in 4-6% of the adult individuals. Fortunately the likelihood that a single thyroid nodule is malignant is approximately 5%. Nodules decreasing in size have negligible risk of cancer and no treatment is required. However, enlarging solid nodules h...
متن کاملCorrelation of Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology with Histopathology in the Diagnosis of Solitary Thyroid Nodule

متن کاملComparison of Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology and Thyroid Scan in Solitary Thyroid Nodule
Objective. This was a comparative study between FNAC and thyroid scan used to diagnose the solitary thyroid nodule and histopathology was used as gold standard to compare the results of both modalities. We hypothesized that Fine needle aspiration cytology and thyroid scan diagnose solitary thyroid nodule (STN) as accurately as histopathology. Materials and Methods. This study comprised of 50 pa...
متن کاملFine Needle Aspiration Cytology versus Fine Needle Capillary Sampling in Cytological Diagnosis of Thyroid Lesions
Background and Objectives: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an established out- patient procedure used in primary diagnosis of palpable thyroid lesions. A modified technique fine needle capillary sampling (FNCS) obviates the need of suction, is less painful, patient friendly and reported to overcome the problem of inadequate and bloody specimens. The aim of our study was to compare the...
