Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System y punción aspiración con aguja fina en el diagnóstico de patología tiroidea en CEDIMEDIC LOJA

Thyroid nodules are a common entity worldwide, which is increasing; however, the diagnosis and follow-up is optimal in order to avoid the development of malignancy. Nodules are related to various pathologies such as cysts varying from simple to hemorrhagic, nodular goiter, adenomas, thyroid carcinomas, lymphomas, sarcomas. The present work aims to evaluate the Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) using fine needle aspiration puncture (FNA) to diagnose thyroid pathology in patients who attend CEDIMEDIC LOJA period April 2019 - April 2020. To determine the frequency of patients with nodular thyroid disease by age group and sex. To relate the Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System vs histopathological study and thyroid cancer in patients with nodular thyroid disease. The study is a correlational, quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional design. 117 patients who underwent ultrasound and subsequent fine needle biopsy were studied. The source of information was mixed. The most frequent age group was between 40 and 64 years, with a predominance of the female sex. Cytology by FNA found that 36% had a malignant lesion, with 100% papillary cancer. The gresults of FNA and ultrasound in this study were fully accepted and correlated with each other 100%. It is concluded that the ultrasound findings and applying the TIRADS classification and performing the FNA are correlated with the histopathologic results obtained from the biopsies. Key words: papillary cancer, thyroid nodule, thyroid c
