Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of rapid on-site evaluation in ultrasound-guide fine needle aspiration biopsy of thyroid.
MethodsData were collected from 220 thyroid nodules that underwent thyroid US-FNAB. They were randomly divided into the two groups, there were 116 cases in on-site cytology group, while there were 104 cases in routine cytology group. The results were compared with the pathological and clinical follow-up findings, which were diagnosed by biopsy and surgical pathology were included in this study.
ResultsThe diagnose rate in on-site cytology group and routine cytology group was 93.1% and 91.3%, the diagnose rate of the on-site cytology was highly consistent with conventional cytological diagnosis. The mean procedural time of inspection was (15.82±1.73) and (10.43±0.97) min respectively, there was statistical difference of above-mentioned data between the two groups (P<0.05) .And the mean needle passes of inspection was (1.8±0.5) and (2.7±0.6) ,respectively, there was statistical difference of above-mentioned data between the two groups (P<0.05) .
ConclusionRapid on-site evaluation for thyroid FNA can't improve diagnostic performance of thyroid nodules, but can reduces the number of needle passes, especially for some thyroid FNA with inadequate specimens.
