Abstract:
Oncocytic lesions of the thyroid are a heterogeneous group encompassing nonneoplastic and neoplastic entities ranging from benign to malignant and have traditionally been classified as separate entities in thyroid pathology. To illustrate the diversity of these thyroid lesions, we describe three cases of fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) diagnosed as Bethesda Category IV: Follicular neoplasm, oncocytic type, under the 2017 Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC), with ThyroSeq v3 molecular testing and subsequent surgical excision.
