fine needle aspiration (FNA)

Cancer rate of the indeterminate lesions at low or high risk according to italian system for reporting of thyroid FNA

Background: Italian consensus for the classification and reporting of thyroid cytology
(ICCRTC) has been used in almost all Italian institutions since 2014. High reliability
of ICCRTC in classifying low and high risk indeterminate nodules (Tir 3A and Tir 3B,
respectively) was demonstrated. Here we reviewed our casuistry of thyroid indeterminate
lesions to analyze the histologic outcome.
Methods: All lesions undergone FNA and final histology at S. Andrea Hospital of Rome
