Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is cost effective, minimally invasive and time saving, accurate method as first line of evaluation (1) for assessment of thyroid swellings and to distinguish between benign and malignant lesions. A prospective study of 100 patients with thyroid swelling during the period from May 2015 to April 2016 was conducted to determine the utility and diagnostic accuracy in establishing the diagnosis of thyroid lesions and to assess the correlation between preoperative cytological and postoperative histopathological diagnoses.
