We investigated the incidence of cancer in surgically resected 151 thyroid nodules in 101 patients according to their calcification patterns on preoperative ultrasonography (US). Calcification was detected in 57 (38%) nodules, 31 (54%) of which was histologically diagnosed as cancer. According to the calcification types, 9 of 11 nodules with microcalcifications, 15 of 29 nodules with intranodular coarse calcification, 6 of 14 nodules with peripheral calcification and 1 of 3 calcified spots without surrounding tumor were diagnosed as cancer.
我们根据术前超声检查(US)显示的钙化模式,对101例患者手术切除的151个甲状腺结节的癌症发生率进行了调查。在57个(38%)结节中检测到钙化,其中31个(54%)经组织学诊断为癌症。根据钙化类型,11个有微钙化的结节中有9个、29个有结节内粗大钙化的结节中有15个、14个有周边钙化的结节中有6个以及3个无周围肿瘤的钙化灶中有1个被诊断为癌症。
