摘要
AIM: To evaluate whether thyroid surgery be decided based on ultrasonographic criteria of the nodule(s), irrespective of cytopathological findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The histopathological findings of resected thyroid lobes were retrospectively reviewed and the findings were compared with the preoperative ultrasonographic and cytopathological findings. RESULTS: The results suggest that the decision to operate on thyroid lesions based on suspicious sonographic findings was correct in a significant number of patients irrespective of the preoperative cytopathological findings. CONCLUSION: Sonographic features suspicious for malignancy should be taken seriously even if the cytopathological results are inconclusive or are suggestive of benignity.
