“…The initial preoperative screening procedures include ultrasonography, fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and radio nucleotide scan. Among these, the FNAC is considered the most accurate diagnostic modality [3]. The Bethesda system of thyroid cytologyreporting makes the reports clinically relevant and helps the clinicians to take appropriate therapeutic interventions [4].…”

Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) plays important role in diagnosis of thyroid lesions. However conventional reporting of cytology lack standardize format. The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) presented at Bethesda in 2007 to address this barrier and facilitate communication between cytopathology's and clinician. This study was designed to classify thyroid FNAC according to TBSRTC, calculate malignancy risk by analytical cross sectional study. All the FNAC of thyroid lesions came during August 2013 to December 2014 were classified in to six categories of TBSRTC. Distribution of cases in each category was calculated. Cytopathology examination carried out whenever tissue was available and malignancy risk calculated. A total number 115 patients was enrolled to this study, 96 (83.48%) females and 19 (16.52%) males. The patients' ages ranged from 17 years to 80 years. The highest prevalence was noted in age groups 41-50 years followed with age groups 31-40 years with for both genders. All FNAS results were classified in to six categories of TBSRTC. The highest prevalence was recorded with benign with 51.3%, followed by A.U.S with 14.7% then U.N.S with 11.3%. Use of TBSRTC for thyroid FNAC reporting helps to highlight increased malignancy risk associated with different classification and malignant categories related to cytology of thyroid lesions.

Background:Diseases of the thyroid gland can be due to inflammatory and neoplastic causes. Many diagnostic tests like ultrasound, thyroid nuclear scan and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) are available for their evaluation. Histopathologically, they can be adenomas, colloid nodules, cysts, infectious nodules, lymphocytic or granulomatous nodules, congenital abnormalities or hyperplasia, or various types of malignancy. It is therefore crucial to have a clear diagnostic approach to ensure patients are managed appropriately and are not over or under-treated. Present study was done to evaluate FNAC and ultrasonography (USG) as a diagnostic method in thyroid swellings and to plan surgery accordingly.Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted among 60 adult patients undergoing thyroid surgery at Victoria and Bowring and Lady Curzon Hospital. They were investigated with FNAC and USG of thyroid, and were subjected to surgery and subsequent histopathological examination. The histopathological examination reports were correlated with the findings of FNAC and USG in order to evaluate their findings by statistical methods.Results:The sensitivity and specificity of FNAC was 87.5% and 98% respectively. All malignant lesions on FNAC were confirmed by histopathology indicating its excellence. Therefore FNAC helps in planning the correct management and avoids second surgery. And the sensitivity and specificity of USG was 75% and 86% respectively. Therefore combination of both FNAC and ultrasonography will improve the diagnostic accuracy to higher level and helps in better management. Conclusions:FNAC has high sensitivity and specificity, so it is closest to ideal test. However, a combination of both FNAC and ultrasound will give desirable results and so that we can avoid mismanagement.
