Abstract
Oncocytic lesions of the thyroid are a heterogeneous group encompassing nonneoplastic and neoplastic entities ranging from benign to malignant and have traditionally been classified as separate entities in thyroid pathology. To illustrate the diversity of these thyroid lesions, we describe three cases of fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) diagnosed as Bethesda Category IV: Follicular neoplasm, oncocytic type, under the 2017 Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC), with ThyroSeq v3 molecular testing and subsequent surgical excision.
期刊介绍:
Diagnostic Cytopathology is intended to provide a forum for the exchange of information in the field of cytopathology, with special emphasis on the practical, clinical aspects of the discipline. The editors invite original scientific articles, as well as special review articles, feature articles, and letters to the editor, from laboratory professionals engaged in the practice of cytopathology. Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the basis of scientific merit, practical significance, and suitability for publication in a journal dedicated to this discipline. Original articles can be considered only with the understanding that they have never been published before and that they have not been submitted for simultaneous review to another publication.
