收集2015年6月2018年6月于南京医科大学附属南京医院(南京市第一医院)行US-FNAC并经手术治疗的甲状腺结节患者352例,共352个结节,每个结节穿刺4针,病理科医师在穿刺现场依据甲状腺细胞病理学Bethesda报告系统(The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology,TBSRTC)进行细胞学诊断。按照总的穿刺针数分为A组(第1针)、B组(前2针)、C组(前3针)、D组(前4针)4组,将所有结节的细胞学穿刺结果与术后组织病理学检查结果比较,分为符合和不符合两类,分别计算灵敏度、特异度和准确度。
To evaluate the effect on the number of aspirates on the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology (US-FNAC) in thyroid nodules.
Methods:
From June 2015 to June 2018
352 patients were operated US-FNAC and thyroidectomy. Each nodule was aspirated 4 times. Cy
topathologist diagnosed specimen based on The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) on-site. According to the total numbers of aspiration
cytological results were divided into four groups: group A (1st needle)
group B (first 2 needles)
group C (first 3 needles)
and group D (total 4 needles). Yields of US-FNAC were divided into two levels of accuracy and inaccuracy according to the pathological results of paraffin and diagnostic accuracy was calculated separately.
Results:
The sensitivity of group A
B
C
D were 70.8%
85.6%
94.2%
97.8%. The specificity of group A
B
C
D were 55.0%
75.0%
100.0%
100.0%. The accuracy of group A
B
C
D were 69.0%
84.4%
94.9%
98.0%
respectively. The sensitivity
specificity and accuracy of four groups showed statistically significant difference (
P
<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in 3 parameters between group A
group B and group C (P<0.008). Group C and D showed no statistically significance (
P
>0.008).
Conclusion:
The sensitivity
specificity
and accuracy of aspiration increase with the number of needles. However
comprehensively considered
the 3 needles have the highest efficiency of aspiration on the basis of no complications
