Can preoperative modified systemic inflammation score (mSIS) be used to predict malignancy in persistent nondiagnostic thyroid nodules?

Abstract: Background/aim: Despite the use of ultrasound guidance, a significant part of thyroid biopsies are nondiagnostic (ND). We aimed to investigate the utility of the preoperative modified systemic inflammation score (mSIS) to predict malignancies in patients with persistent ND thyroid nodules (TNs). Materials and methods: Records of 924 patients underwent thyroidectomy between September 2016 and May 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The calculation of mSIS was as follows: mSIS 0 [patients with albumin (ALB) ≥ 4.… Show more

“…Ataş et al concluded that there is a significant relationship between mSIS and malignancy and so it can be used as a marker for making surgical decisions in their 2 separate studies on indeterminate TN and persistent nondiagnostic TN. 23,24 Li et al claims that there is a significant relationship between low alb count and high pdw value and thyroid cancer in their study with platelet distribution width and albumin results. 25 Kocer et al also claims that the N/L ratio could be used as a predictor for TN malignancy in their study examining the relationship between neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and thyroid cancer.…”
