Results of retrospective classification of thyroid FNAs according to the Bethesda system: would this have improved accuracy?

Original language description

ObjectivesTo retrospectively reclassify the results of fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology at our institution according to the Bethesda system for reporting thyroid cytopathology (TBSRTC), and to determine whether the introduction of the new classification system would have influenced the diagnostic accuracy compared with our existing system in which suspicious/indeterminate categories (categories III-IV) are managed according to clinical findings and cytopathologists' recommendations. MethodsFNAs performed under ultrasound guidance between 2001 and 2012, and subsequently verified by histology or repeat FNA and follow-up, were reviewed and retrospectively reclassified according to TBSRTC. ResultsAmong a total of 1310 histologically verified FNAs, thepositive predictive values (%) for malignancy and neoplasia (carcinoma+follicular adenomas) for category I-VI according to the TBSRTC were 5.7/11.3, 2.6/5.5, 14.4/34.2, 23.6/55.0, 57.0/64.5 and 92.2/94.2, respectively.
