Their clinical assessment usually includes a fine neddle aspiration biopsy (FNAB).

Material and methods: Retrospective review of all fine needle aspiration biopsies of the thyroid performed in a lapse of two years.

Results: One hundred twenty two biopsies of a total of 1,498 were conclusive for PTC.

Multivariate analysis disclosed microcalcifications (OR 28.1; CI 95% 8.9-89), hypoechogenicity (OR 9.4; 95% CI 1.5-59.5) and irregular borders (OR 4.7; CI 95% 1.5-15) as the variables independently associated with the presence of PTC.
