“…The incidence of occult malignancy is generally thought to be 7%-10% [12,15]. The tumours are usually well-differentiated cancers and are often either papillary or follicular in nature [2,26]. In this study the overall occult malignancy rate is 7.7% (58/750) and was noted to be lower in the BST group (4.7% -8/170) because of the selection criteria of NTT or TT for nodules suspicious of malignancy.…”
