Abstract Introduction: The Sydney system proposal for the study and reporting of
lymphadenopathy by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) constitutes one of the first attempts to …

In recent years, the demand for cytopathological accurate diagnoses has increased as
expanding minimally invasive procedures obtain materials from patients with advanced …

The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) introduced a new
category: Atypia of Undetermined Significance/Follicular Lesion of Undetermined …

Benign thyroid lesions such as multinodular goiter and adenomatoid nodules are well-
circumscribed lesions displaying a macrofollicular growth pattern and lack of nuclear atypia …

Introduction: Thyroid cytology is a widely accepted tool in the clinical triaging of nodular
lesions. Cell blocks (CBs) can help in the diagnosis of atypical lesions, namely, thyroid …

Molecular techniques have helped expand the diagnostic potential of thyroid FNA
specimens, especially in nodules with indeterminate (AUS or FN) cytomorphology. Insights …

Objectives: Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology plays a pivotal role in diagnosing thyroid
nodules. Imaging assessment, followed by thyroid lesion sampling, is a widely applied …

Background: Tissue molecular markers have taken their place as an effective, invasive
method in the diagnosis of thyroid cancers. However, if the superiority of serum molecular …
