“…8 Female-to-male ratio of 7.48:1 has been observed in present study similar to other studies. 9,10,11,12 In the present study distribution of neoplastic and nonneoplastic cases were 9.23% and 90.76% respectively, which was similar to studies done by Ritica Choudhary, Zulfikar Ahmed, Umaru N. 13 S. Chandanwale et al 14 and Junu Devil, Naima Aziz. 15 In a study by S. Chandanwale et al, a study of 150 cases from Pune showed colloid nodular goitre to be the commonest lesion constituting 65.3% of the total lesion and thyroiditis was seen in 12.6% of cases, whereas in our study colloid goitre was the commonest seen in 56.68% of cases and increase in incidence in thyroiditis 31.84%.…”

Thyroid nodules the main indication for FNAC, and the goal of this diagnostic procedure is to detect thyroid neoplasm for surgical resection and to identify non-neoplastic lesions that may be managed conservatively. MATERIAL AND METHODThree hundred and fourteen patients with thyroid nodules diagnosed on physical examination underwent fine-needle aspiration with 23-gauge needle and 10ml syringe. FNAC results were classified into non-neoplastic lesion and neoplastic lesion for diagnosis. RESULT AND ANALYSISWe included 314 cases; 37 were male and 277 were female with female-to-male ratio of 7.48:1. The age ranged from 8 to 87 years with a median age of 47.5 years. Maximum number of patients were found in age group of 41-50 years). In the present study we found 285(90.76%) non-neoplastic lesion and 29(9.23%) neoplastic lesions. Out of 285 non-neoplastic lesion, most commonly encountered were colloid goiter 178(56.68%) and second most common thyroiditis 100(31.84%). Out of 314,29(9.23%) neoplastic lesions, most commonly encountered neoplasm were papillary carcinoma 14(4.45%) followed by 9(2.86%) follicular neoplasm, Hurthle cell neoplasm 2(0.63%), medullary carcinoma 4(1.27%). AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To study the distribution of various thyroid lesions among the age and sex groups.  To study the cytomorphological, clinical and biochemical correlation. CONCLUSIONClinical features and serum findings when used alone to diagnose thyroid lesion, diagnosis will be missed in many cases.

“…Thyroid nodules occur with a prevalence of 4% & majority occurring in the age group between 30 and 60. [7] Most of the swellings are benign and only 10-20% are malignant. [7] So surgery as the initial intervention will have a very low yield.…”

Background: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a cost-effective and time saving diagnostic test used to specifically distinguish between benign and malignant lesions by cytology. Aim: To evaluate the cytomorphological pattern, thyroid hormone profile and radiological findings in early detection of various thyroid diseases. Objective: To correlate the findings of FNAC, thyroid hormone profile and radiological features in diagnosis of various thyroid lesions Methods: 100 patients with thyroid swellings underwent FNAC along with complete thyroid hormone profile& USG Thyroid. Result: 93 female and 7 male patients were evaluated. Mean age of patients was 38.62±14.2. Ninety-four patients had non-neoplastic and 6 had neoplastic lesions. Colloid goiter was the predominant group among non-neoplastic lesions, followed by Hashimoto's thyroiditis whereas follicular neoplasm was seen more frequently among neoplastic group. Majority of patients (71%) were in euthyroid state, followed by hypothyroid state and least in hyperthyroid state. In our study 88% of benign lesions were hyper-echoic and all malignant lesions were hypoechoic. Most of the cystic nodules were benign and showed macro-calcification whereas all malignant lesions showed micro-calcification. Most of the benign lesions showed peripheral hypervascularisation and all malignant lesions showed internal hypervascularisation. There was a statistically positive significant correlation between FNAC findings and radiological features with P<0.001. Conclusion: FNAC and radiological examination play significant role in an accurate diagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions of thyroid gland. Thyroid profile also plays a very important role in sub-typing of non-neoplastic lesions.

“…FNAC is a simple, cost effective, readily repeated Original Article | Journal of Gandaki Medical College-Nepal minimally invasive and quick to perform procedure. The main purpose is to reduce unnecessary surgery thereby confirming benign lesions 3 . FNAC is however not without limitation; accuracy is lower in suspicious cytology and in follicular neoplasm.…”

Introduction: Swelling of the thyroid gland is a commonly encountered clinical problem in all age groups whether benign or malignant. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) of the thyroid lesions along with hormonal function test helps in the proper preoperative assessment. Ultimately it changes clinical management and improves the patient outcome.Objectives: To describe the cytomorphological features of palpable thyroid nodules using fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) along with the assessment of thyroid hormonal status of the patient.Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Pathology of Gandaki Medical College and Teaching hospital from January 2017 to December 2017 and included 50 patients with thyroid lesions. Cytological assessment was done using FNAC along with serological assessment of thyroid hormones.Results: In the study 50 cases of thyroid swelling were included and evaluated by cytological and hormonal analysis which comprises of 10% males and 90% females with a with a female to male ratio of 9 : 1. Maximum number of cases was seen in the age range 41 - 60 years (46%), mean age being 44.6 years. The cytological diagnosis comprised colloid goiter (58%), lymphocytic thyroiditis (16%), Hashimoto thyroiditis (10%). Thyroid hormone analysis showed 66% euthyroid, 22% hypothyroid and 12% hyperthyroid.Conclusions: The study showed that FNAC and TFT profile both are essential for the proper management of thyroid lesions. FNAC along with hormonal analysis helps in proper patient assessment and management. J-GMC-N | Volume 11 | Issue 01 | January-June 2018, Page: 17-22
