abstract：:Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of the thyroid for papillary carcinomas is highly sensitive. We sought to determine if the sensitivity of FNA for papillary carcinoma is correlated with the size of the tumor. We reviewed the results of thyroid resections for the last 12 years and correlated the findings with clinical and ...
