Role of Marginal Vacuoles in Fnac Thyroid
Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Marginal vacuoles (MVs) are irregular cytoplasmic vacuoles measuring 1-7 μm in diameter, deeply eosinophilic in the periphery with a large unstained central area and tend to gather peripherally in a group of follicular epithelium. We studied the presence of MVs in thyroid enlargements with aims to assess the presence of MVs in diffuse thyroid enlargements,to investigate whether MVs have a diagnostic role in fine needle aspiration cytology of solitary thyroid nodules and to evaluate the degree of correlation between MVs, levels of thyroid hormones and cytological diagnosis. It was concluded that the presence of abundantMVs revealed an association with Primary hyperplasia and hyperthyroid cases; but they can also be seen in patients with Hashimoto’sthyroiditis and in euthyroid cases. MVs are infrequent in Colloid goiter and do not correlate well with thyroid function.
