Background: Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) of thyroid gland has greater sensitivity as compared to other diagnostic modalities for thyroid nodules. The present study was conducted to compare the sonographic findings of cold thyroid nodules with cytologic changes. Materials and methods: For 219 patients, sonography of thyroid nodules was performed by 7.5MHz probes and the following changes were r...
متن کاملDoes Hurthle cell lesion/neoplasm predict malignancy more than follicular lesion/neoplasm on thyroid fine-needle aspiration?
Thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is a standard procedure for the clinical triage of thyroid nodules. The diagnosis of an adequately sampled thyroid FNA is generally grouped into three categories: benign, malignant, and indeterminate. The latter group usually includes follicular neoplasm, follicular lesion, and sometimes a more specific diagnosis such as Hurthle cell neoplasm or follicular l...
