Compliance of Thyroid Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy and Trucut Biopsy Results With TIRADS Score and Surgical Pathology

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The investigators retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 760 patients with thyroid nodule biopsy and 88 patients who had thyroid surgery. The investigators evaluated patients' thyroid ultrasonography reports and determined Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System scores (TIRADS score: 1-Benign, 2- very low malignant) risk, 3-low risk, 4-medium risk, 5 -malignant high risk). The investigators evaluated patients 'existing thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) reports and recorded the patients' cytology results (benign, malignant). Documents of 88 patients who were included in the study and who underwent thyroidectomy were reviewed.Pathology reports of these patients were evaluated and surgical pathology was determined as benign in 58 patients and malignant in 30 patients. Then, a statistical study was performed between the cor needle biopsy (CNB) results of these participants and the surgical pathology and TI-RADS scores.

Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy group<br>A group of 760 people who had a thyroid nodule and who had a thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy for diagnosis. | Procedure: Thyroid biopsy with ultrasound<br>* Patients with thyroid nodules who underwent ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy with a 20 gauge core needle biopsy apparatus were included in the study.<br>* Other names: Total thyroidectomy;|
| Thyroid core needle aspiration biopsy group<br>A patient group with 760 people who had a thyroid nodule and who had a thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy for diagnosis and who underwent a core needle biopsy again. A total thyroidectomy was performed in 88 of these patients. Surgical pathology results, core needle results and TIRADS scores were compared. | Procedure: Thyroid biopsy with ultrasound<br>* Patients with thyroid nodules who underwent ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy with a 20 gauge core needle biopsy apparatus were included in the study.<br>* Other names: Total thyroidectomy;|

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Evaluation of the distribution of patients according to thyroid biopsy results. | Thyroid biopsy results (benign, malignant) will be compared with % of patients with these results. It will be analyzed statistically. | 4-year results were included. | 
| Examination of TIRADS score distribution according to thyroid biopsy results. | Thyroid biopsy results (benign, malignant) will be compared with the percentage of patients who fit the TIRADS score distribution (1-5). It will be analyzed statistically. | 4-year results were included. | 
| Evaluation of the compliance of TI-RADS scores with surgical pathology reports. | Surgical pathology results (benign, malignant) and TI-RADS scores (1 to 5) will be compared with% of patients matching the distribution (1-5). It will be analyzed statistically. | 4-year results were included. | 
| Evaluation of the distribution of thyroid biopsy results and surgical pathology results. | The % of patients who match the distribution of thyroid biopsy results (benign, malignant) and surgical pathology results (benign, malignant) will be compared. It will be analyzed statistically. | 4-year results were included. |
