BACKGROUND
Thyroid cancer is one of the common malignant conditions of the head and neck region, and it is considered as one of the most common cancers among endocrine tumors. Ultrasonography is widely used in order to assess thyroid nodules, Therefore, the aim of our study is to determine the accuracy of ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB)-guided by ultrasonography in the diagnosis of thyroid malignancy among the population in the Ha'il region of Saudi Arabia.
METHODS
A retrospective evaluation of 137 patients was undertaken at King Salman Specialist Hospital, Ha'il, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Patients who presented with thyroid swellings underwent ultrasonography and FNAB.
RESULT
Our study results have concluded that the sensitivity of the ultrasonography in the confirmation of a malignant thyroid lesion is 59.4% and its specificity was found to be 74.3%.
CONCLUSION
The study showed that ultrasonography using Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data Systems (TIRADS) is a significant step in evaluating a thyroid nodule. Also, it is highly sensitive and specific, cost-effective, and convenient for the patient.
背景
甲状腺癌是头颈部常见的恶性疾病之一，被认为是内分泌肿瘤中最常见的癌症之一。超声检查广泛用于评估甲状腺结节，因此，我们研究的目的是确定超声检查以及超声引导下细针穿刺活检（FNAB）在沙特阿拉伯哈伊勒地区人群甲状腺恶性肿瘤诊断中的准确性。
方法
在沙特阿拉伯王国哈伊勒的国王萨勒曼专科医院对137例患者进行了回顾性评估。出现甲状腺肿大的患者接受了超声检查和FNAB。
结果
我们的研究结果得出，超声检查在确诊甲状腺恶性病变中的敏感性为59.4%，特异性为74.3%。
结论
该研究表明，使用甲状腺影像报告和数据系统（TIRADS）的超声检查是评估甲状腺结节的重要一步。此外，它具有高度敏感性和特异性，具有成本效益，且对患者方便。
