Özet

Aim: It is a diagnostic challenge to differentiate benign and malignant cytology in the presence of Hurthle cells. In our previous study, it was determined that in fine needle aspirations (FNA), the malignancy outcome of the Hurthle cells containing group tend to be papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in a higher percentage. The most common misinterpretation is caused by PTC cells with large cytoplasm-like Hurthle cells. The aim of this study is to predict histologic outcome of the nodules, which have Hurthle cells in FNA according to cytological, clinical features, and BRAF(V600E) mutation status.
