Abstract

Objective:To evaluate the predictive role of complete blood count(CBC) parameters in thyroid cytological diagnosis in patients with thediagnosis of undetermined significance (AUS) and suspicious for malignancy (SM) in hematological inflammatory parameters. Methods:The preoperative CBC of 127 patients who underwent totalthyroidectomy were retrospectively evaluated. While 52 patients weredefined as AUS (Group 1), 75 patients were defined as SM (Group 2)in thyroid fine-needle aspiration cytology. Both groups were dividedinto benign and malignant sub-groups according to histopathologicaldiagnosis of thyroidectomy specimens. In each group, the preoperativehematologic parameters (leukocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet,neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio 'NLR', platelet/lymphocyte ratio, 'PLR')were compared with respect to malignancy, tumor size, stage and multicentericity of cancer. Results: The statistical analysis showed that there was no significantdifference in comparison of hematological parameters in benign andmalignant groups. Conclusion:Our study showed that there was no role of NLR andPLR in the cytological diagnosis of AUS and SM to predict malignancy. There was also no correlation of hematological parameters to tumorsize, multicentricity, and central lymph node metastasis.

Özet

Amaç: Önemi belirlenememiş tanısı alan ve hematolojik enflamatuarparametreleri malignite kuşkusu taşıyan tiroid hastalarının sitolojiktanısında tam kan sayımı (TKS) parametrelerinin prediktif rolünü değerlendirmek.Yöntem:Total tiroidektomi geçirmiş 127 hastanın preoperatifTKS'leri retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. İnce iğne aspirasyon sitolojisinde hastaların 52'si önemi belirlenememiş (ÖB, Grup 1) ve75'i malignite kuşkusu (MK, Grup 2) olarak tanımlandı. Her ikigrup, tiroidektomi numunesinin histopatolojik tanısına göre benignve malign alt gruplara ayrıldı. Her bir grupta preoperatif hematolojik parametreler (lökosit, nötrofil, lenfosit, trombosit, nötrofil/lenfosit oranı 'NLO', trombosit /lenfosit oranı 'TLO') malignite, tümörbüyüklüğü, evresi ve kanserin çok merkezli olması açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular:İstatistiksel analiz benign ve malign gruplarda hematolojikparametrelerin karşılaştırmasında önemli bir farklılık olmadığını gösterdi. Sonuç:Çalışmamız maligniteyi öngörmede NLO ve TLO'nun sitolojik ÖB ve MK tanısında herhangi bir rolünün olmadığını göstermiştir. Hematolojik parametreler tümör büyüklüğü, çok merkezlilik vesantral lenf nodülü metastazı ile de korele değildir.
