“…De acordo com a American Thyroid Association a PAAF é o teste padrão-ouro para avaliação inicial de um nódulo de tireoide (GRAF, 2004;HAMBLETON;KANDIL, 2013). A sensibilidade e a especificidade da PAAF variam com a literatura, sendo de 87 a 92,8% e de 62 a 100%, respectivamente (PECCIN et al, 2003;UGURLU et al, 2008;RAHIMI et al, 2013).…”

The thyroid nodule is the presentation of various diseases of this gland. It is a very common clinical condition, particularly when employing sensitive methods of image. In this context, fine needle aspiration (FNA) is the main tool for differential diagnosis and the best value for money in the evaluation of nodular thyroid disease. This study aims to evaluate the profile of patients with thyroid nodules that are submitted to FNA. The sample consisted of 77 patients with thyroid nodule to be punctured. Data were collected for a period of 5 months in the Medical Center Sergipe Integrated (CEMISE), located in Aracaju / SE. The sample comprised 77 patients. Within the sample were 73 female patients (94.8%) and 4 men (5.2%), predominantly aged between 50 and 59 years. As the number of nodes, 57.1% of the patients (44 patients) had only one node to be punctured, while 42.9% (33 patients) had more than one. The majority (58.3%) of the nodules studied showed size = 1.0 cm. The familial history of thyroid disease was found in 42 patients (54.5%) and hypothyroidism personal history corresponded to 16.9% of the sample. The ultrasound examination showed 42 cases of thyroiditis. The results confirm the higher prevalence of thyroid nodules in the female population with advanced age. However, the finding of a greater number of nodes with small diameter puncture indication differs from existing literature.

Prospective evaluation of solitary thyroid nodule on 18F-FDG PET/CT and high-resolution ultrasonography

Routine use of 18F-FDG PET/CT with SUV(max) at 60 min as the sole diagnostic criterion does not appear to have a significant advantage over high-resolution ultrasound in the evaluation of thyroid nodules. Incorporation of dual time point imaging enhances image interpretation, and yields a higher diagnostic performance, yet it is not statistically significant. Bearing in mind the cost, limited availability and radiation exposure, routine use of 18F-FDG PET/CT for distinguishing benign from malignant thyroid nodules cannot be recommended.
