Molecular Assays in Cytopathology for Thyroid Cancer.
BACKGROUND Despite lack of adequate, validated, independently performed clinical studies, several molecular tests are commercially available on the market and are being used on indeterminate thyroid nodules to guide patient-care decisions. METHODS We summarize the current evidence on the role and limitations of molecular tests used in combination with thyroid cytopathology to refine the presu...
متن کاملAACE/ACE disease state commentary: molecular diagnostic testing of thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytopathology.
• Approximately 10 to 25% of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies yield an indeterminate result often labeled as atypia of undetermined significance or follicular lesion of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS) or follicular neoplasm/suspicious for follicular neoplasm (FN/SFN). The risk of malignancy typically varies between 15 and 30% for these categories. • Although many markers are in develo...
متن کاملThyroid cytopathology: Bethesda and beyond.
Thyroid nodules are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Although the overwhelming majority of them turn out to be benign, the small subset of cancerous nodules needs to be accurately identified for optimal and timely surgical management. Fine-needle aspiration has proven to be the most valuable diagnostic modality for pre-operative distinction of benign from malignant nodules. The recent...

متن کاملThe Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology: Proposed Modifications and Updates for the Second Edition from an International Panel.
The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytology (TBSRTC) was proposed in 2007 at the National Cancer Institute Thyroid Fine Needle Aspiration State of the Art and Science Conference held in Bethesda, Maryland. The aim was to address the inconsistent and sometimes confusing reporting terminologies used for thyroid FNA throughout the world. The TBSRTC consists of 6 diagnostic categories, each ...
