Comparison Between Combined Scoring of Bethesda Cytology & TIRADS

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

A thyroid nodule is a discrete lesion within the thyroid gland that is radiologically distinct from the surrounding thyroid parenchyma. Most thyroid nodules are benign, with only 10% to 15% harboring cancer. This is a prospective study conducted at the department of Ear, Nose and Throat - Head and Neck Surgery (ENT-HNS) of Shree Birendra Hospital , a tertiary heath care centre of Nepal. Individuals visiting ENT-HNS outpatient department with thyroid nodules had undergone Ultrasonography (USG) of neck followed by Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) from the thyroid nodules. USG was reported by Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System(TIRADS) and FNAC by Bethesda system. Thereafter patients were planned either for surgery either total thyroidectomy or hemithyroidectomy. Post operative histopathology was correlated with preoperative FNAC and USG reports.

Clinical Trial Description

The main objective of this prospective cohort study is to know the correlation between pre- operative Bethesda with post- operative histopathology , pre - operative TIRADS with post operative Histopathology and comparison of combined scoring of Bethesda and TIRADS with histopathology report. It is of utmost importance to deep dive into thyroid nodules workup to detect malignant nodules, as the management aspect of benign and malignant nodules has a vast difference. Thyroid ultrasonography is useful for risk stratification of nodules, and American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR TI-RADS) classification provides recommendations for fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) based on objective ultrasonography features of these nodules. To maintain uniformity in reporting system FNA sample are categorized according to the Bethesda system. Total 42 participants who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Statistical Analysis was done using Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 25. Analysis was done in the form of percentage and proportion and represented as table wherever necessary. Spearman's correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the correlation between Bethesda and TIRADS. Bethesda and histopathology and TIRADS and Bethesda system. The P value was set at < 0.05 for statistical significance. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
