BACKGROUND: Whether initial clinical presentation and thyroid ultrasonography referral indications can significantly predict malignant/suspicious for malignancy (Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology [Bethesda] V/VI) thyroid ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology results is unknown.
METHODS: Between January 2010 and May 2014, we performed 705 thyroid ultrasound-guided FNA biopsies, according to the American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines. Univariate analysis was used to identify significant predictors for Bethesda V/VI thyroid ultrasound-guided FNA cytology, including age, sex, imaging modality, thyroid dysfunction, neck pain, breathing difficulties, dysphagia, odynophagia, fatigue, lateral cervical mass, parotid mass, and hyperparathyroidism.
RESULTS: Sixty percent of patients were referred to thyroid ultrasound-guided FNA because of thyroid incidentalomas and 40% because of palpable thyroid nodules found on physical examination. Only positron emission tomography (PET)-CT emerged as being a significant predictor for Bethesda V/VI thyroid ultrasound-guided FNA cytology (odds ratio [OR] = 5.64; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.16-27.33; p = .03).
CONCLUSION: Patient symptomatology and initial clinical thyroid ultrasound-guided FNA referral indications cannot predict the nature of thyroid nodules. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 38: E991-E995, 2016.
