Background and Objectives:With the availability of more sensitive ultrasonography, a larger number of nonpalpable thyroid d nodule. The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical significance of thyroid incidentaloma and the usefulnes of the USG-FNA in the management of thyroid incidentaloma. Subjects and Method:A retrospective study was performed on 208 pa-tients who underwent USG-FNA for thyroid incidentaloma smaller than 1.5 cm from 2001 to 2005. The cytologic findings were compared with the ultrasonographic findings and the surgical pathology. Results:Suspicious malignant sonographic findings cytologicaly diagnosed as benign lesion (76.4%), 7 cases as follicular neoplasm (3.3%), 33 cases as malignancy (15.8%), and 9 cases as inadequate specimen (4.4%). Of the 40 cases with folicular neoplasm and malignant cytology, 37 cases underwent sur-gery and 30 cases were confirmed to malignancy on the postoperative pathologic diagnosis. In the cases diagnosed to malig-nancy on pathology, extracapsular extension was present in 9 cases (30% ) (26.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the USG-FNA for malignancy were 93.3%, 71.4%, and 89.1%, respectively. Conclusion:USG-FNA is a useful diagnostic tol in the management of thyroid incidentaloma especially when more than two suspicious malig-nant sonographic findings need to be detected. The clinical characteristics is not significantly diferent between palpable and nonpalpable nodules. (Korean J Otorhinolaryngol-Head Neck Surg 2007 ;50 :622-6)
