A preoperative diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcomas (DDLPS) on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is rare with scarce indexed literature. Herein, we describe a case of DDLPS diagnosed on fine needle aspiration which was presumed to be a lymphoma clinically and radiologically.

Two main biopsy techniques are currently used: closed biopsy (core needle or fine needle aspiration) and open biopsy. Historical oncologic teaching is for resection of the biopsy tract with the tumor specimen due to the theoretical risk for biopsy tract tumor contamination; however, this can restrict surgical planning and increase morbidity.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of deep learning technology to thyroid ultrasound images for classification of thyroid nodules.

Methods: This retrospective analysis included ultrasound images of patients with thyroid nodules investigated by fine-needle aspiration at the thyroid clinic of a single center from April 2010 to September 2012. Thyroid nodules with cytopathologic results of Bethesda category V (suspicious for malignancy) or VI (malignant) were defined as thyroid cancer.
