مستخلص: Introduction: The Bethesda System recommends repeat fine needle aspiration (rFNA) as a management option for nodules classified under the non-diagnostic (ND) and atypia of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS) categories. We evaluated the impact of an rFNA in diagnostic resolution and the role of early (≤3 months) vs delayed (more than 3 months) rFNA of nodules initially diagnosed as ND and AUS/FLUS.
Methods: We retrospectively collected all thyroid FNA performed in a 4-year period with repeat aspiration. For cases initially signed out as ND or AUS/FLUS, diagnostic resolution was defined as a change to a Bethesda System category other than these two on rFNA. Comparison and regression models were fitted to identify the impact of time of rFNA on diagnostic resolution.
Results: In total, 184 cases were initially assigned as ND and 143 as AUS/FLUS, with overall diagnostic resolution rates for the reassessment of these nodules calculated at 70.1% and 62.9%, respectively. For ND cases, time of rFNA was not significantly associated with diagnostic resolution (P > .05). For AUS/FLUS nodules, however, repeat aspiration performed in more than 3 months after the initial diagnosis was 2.5 times more likely to achieve a resolution in diagnosis than early rFNA (P = .024).
Conclusions: Repeat aspiration of ND and AUS/FLUS nodules helped define diagnosis for the majority of cases, being highly effective in determining correct patient management. For AUS/FLUS nodules, repeat aspiration performed more than 3 months after the initial diagnosis was associated with a higher diagnostic resolution.
