Abstract

 

Background: Bethesda system of reporting thyroid cytology helps
in uniform reporting and clear communication among doctors for
further management. This also helps in clear cytopathological and
histopathological correlation. Aims and Objectives: This study was
undertaken to classify thyroid lesions under Bethesda category and
to correlate it histopathologically. Material and Methods: A total of 110
patients were studied in a prospective study of one year duration
from January to December 2019 at a tertiary care hospital care
hospital of eastern U.P. and the results were correlated cytologically
and histopathologically. Results: Based on the Bethesda system, out
of 110 lesions of thyroid, 79% were of Category II, least cases were
of Category V and Category VI. While no cases were under atypia
of undetermined significance. Out of these 52 cases were further
compared on histopathology and correlated. Conclusion: Review
of thyroid lesion by Bethesda system embarks better and uniform
categorization which facilitates and simplifies further management
of patients and also reduces unnecessary surgical procedure in
benign cases.
