Follicular nodules (THY3) of the thyroid: We recommend surgery

Objective: To determine the need of total thyrodectomy for patients with follicular nodules of thyroid. Subjects and methods: From January 2005 through June 2008, 2249 consecutive patients (438 males, 1811 females; mean age 54 yr, range 9–87) with thyroid nodules were submitted to 2518 ultrasound-gu...

description Objective: To determine the need of total thyrodectomy for patients with follicular nodules of thyroid. Subjects and methods: From January 2005 through June 2008, 2249 consecutive patients (438 males, 1811 females; mean age 54 yr, range 9–87) with thyroid nodules were submitted to 2518 ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (USgFNA) for cytological examination. USgFNA were performed by experienced surgeon (RP) and endocrinologist (RGG) under ultra-sonographyc guidance, using a 10-MHz linear transducer. Liquid-based cytology was used. Results: All cytological samples were classified in 5 diagnostic classes (THY1, THY2, THY3, THY4, THY5) in agreement with the British Thyroid Association (BTA); 1.4% specimen were classified as THY5, 2.1 % as THY4, 7.6% as THY3, 79.5% as THY2 and 9.4% as THY1. In 97% of THY5 patients, malignancy was found. Among THY4 patients, 95.5% were positive for thyroid tumor. Among THY3 patients, malignancy was found in 29.1%. THY3 patients with thyroid tumors were younger than those with benign lesions (46±14.1 yr vs 50±13.8 yr; p 95% both in THY5 and THY4, and >29% in THY3 lesions). Our proposal is to submit to total thyroidectomy all patients with THY5 and THY4 lesions and THY3 thyroid nodule >1 cm.
