Abstract :
To identify the anatomical
location of thyroid nodule and to find out association of
this location with the risk of malignancy.
Materials and Methods: The prospective observational
study was conducted in Bir Hospital from May 2020 to
March 2021. A total of 35 patient with thyroid nodule
were included. Ultrasonography of thyroid nodules was
done to determine the laterality and polarity. Nodules of
size ≥cm were considered and sent for fine needle
aspiration cytology. Surgery was done for nodules with
malignant features and histopathology was sent.
Keywords :
Thyroid nodule; Malignancy of thyroid; Ultrasonography; fine needle aspiration cytology.
