BACKGROUND. The Papanicolaou Society of Cytopathology recently proposed 6 diagnostic categories for the classification of thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. Using these categories, the experience with FNA from 2 institutions was studied with emphasis on cytologic-histologic correlation,
Crile and Hazard reported in 1953 a follicular pattern of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Little has been said about this pattern in the cytologic literature. From more than 8,000 thyroid aspirates in our files, we reviewed all those diagnosed as ''follicular variant of papillary carcinoma,'' ''suspect
## Abstract ## Purpose. To assess the reliability of sonography in differentiating benign from malignant thyroid nodules and selecting lesions for fineβneedle aspiration (FNA). ## Methods. During a 2βyear period, the following 7 sonographic parameters were assessed in 129 patients with thyroid n
