Abstract:
There are an increasing number of thyroid nodules found by ultrasound and sampled by fine needle aspiration (FNA). A clinical problem is the accurate distinction between benign and malignant forms of follicular lesion. In this review we discuss the thyroid lesions that are common sources of diagnostic error, and grouped together as follicular patterned lesion, and the molecular markers identified by us and others, and that are able to distinguish the benign from the malignant ones.
