  • Title: [Experiences with ambulatory cytodiagnosis of the thyroid gland].
    Author: Zabel-Langhennig R, Endert G.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1977 Apr 15; 32(8):113 concl. PubMed ID: 883351.
    Abstract:
    It is reported on 250 needle biopsies of the thyroid gland above all in scintigraphically cold nodes. In altogether 57% of the patients either a fully inconspicuous cell picture or degenerative findings not suspicious for malignity were present. In 28% of the cases a cyst of the thyroid gland was the result. Four tumours were cytologically established; a small carcinoma in a large nodular struma was not recognized by puncture. According to corresponding opinions the needle biopsy of the thyroid gland is a valuable supplementation of the ambulant diagnostics of the thyroid gland.
