Background: Chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (CLT) increases cytologic atypia on fine-needle aspiration of thyroid nodules, and its effect on rate of malignancy in atypia of undetermined significance (AUS)/follicular lesions of undetermined significance (FLUS) thyroid nodules remains unclear.

Methods: Retrospective review of 1061 patients who underwent thyroidectomy for a dominant thyroid nodule from a single institution was performed.
