Study of Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Thyroid Lesion
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has emerged as one of the well established first line diagnostic technique in the evaluation of various thyroid lesions as well as solitary thyroid nodule. But in the cytological diagnosis of borderline lesions, various diagnostic criteria have led to confusion and differences in reporting between cytopathologists and clinicians. To overcome this situation, the Bethesda System of Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) 2007 recommended by the National Cancer Institute put down six general diagnostic categories. Thyroid nodules are commonly encountered in clinical practice and more common in women, and the incidence increases with age, history of radiation and diet containing goitrogenic material. The present study was conducted in the Department of Pathology, to evaluate the results of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in the diagnosis and management of thyroid lesions.
