Cytomorphological Aspects of Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: Our Experience at a Tertiary Center

摘要

INTRODUCTIONHashimoto’s thyroiditis is the most common form of acquired hypothyroidism. Fine needle aspiration cytology is one important tool in diagnosing Hashimoto’s thyroditis, along with clinical, biochemical, immunological and ultrasonographical modalities. The present study examines cytological aspects of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis along with their correlation with clinical, biochemical and immunological findings, whenever available.
