Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Purpose of the study was to evaluate the role of ultrasonography (US) and US-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in patients with thyroid nodules. Methods and Materials: US of the thyroid gland was performed in 1428 patients. Thyroid volume as well as volume of the nodules were calculated. US guided-FNAB using 22–24 gauge needles was performed in 382 patients who had one or more nodules with sonographic features known to increase likelihood of malignancy. Results: Cytology revealed 18 patients with papillary carcinoma confirmed by histology. In 33 patients malignancy could not be ruled out due t…
