Thyroid nodules are common clinical findings, with an increased prevalence in the general population with a reported prevalence of 4% to 7%.The vast majority of these nodules are nonneoplastic lesions or benign neoplasms.However, the distinction of these benign lesions from a malignancy cannot be based reliably on the clinical presentation only.The main debated and concerned issues are excluding thyroid cancer.Preoperative, ultrasonographically guided fine-needle aspiration has been shown to accurately classify 62 to 85% of thyroid nodules as benign, thereby avoiding diagnostic surgery.
