Fine Needle Aspiration Cell Blocks In The Diagnosis Of Medullary Thyroid Cancer: Report Of Four Cases And Review Of The Literature
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PATHOLOGY(2016)
Abstract
US-Fine needle aspiration biopsy (US-FNAB) is a simple diagnostic procedure to find malignant thyroid nodules. However, few papers have evaluated the specific value of FNAB to detect medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). This study aimed to appraise the value of FNAB cell blocks in the diagnosis of MTC by a novel cell block preparation method. We retrospectively reviewed four typical cases of MTC that were diagnosed with cytomorphology and immunohistochemistry of cell blocks.
