Serum thyroglobulin elevation after needle aspiration of the lymph nodes: the predictive value for detecting metastasis in papillary thyroid cancer patients – a pilot study
Ultrasonography (USG)-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) is widely used for diagnosis of lymph node (LN) metastasis in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). However, FNA cytology sometimes shows inconclusive results. Recently, the measurement of thyroglobulin (Tg) in FNA washout fluid (aspirate-Tg) has b...
