Background: Thyroid nodules classified cytologically as low-risk indeterminate lesions (TIR3A) on fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) present a clinical challenge due to their uncertain malignancy risk. This single-center study aimed to evaluate the natural history of TIR3A nodules.

Materials And Methods: FNABs performed between July 2017 and December 2019 were retrospectively retrieved and patients with TIR3A nodules were evaluated at baseline and throughout a follow-up based on ultrasound (US) parameters and clinical data.

Objective: An accurate fine-needle aspiration (FNA) diagnosis of adrenal lesions may be challenging. This study was to investigate roles of imaging guidance, rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) and additional tissue sampling in FNA diagnosis of adrenal lesions.

Methods: Adrenal FNA cases were retrieved from pathology archive.

Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a very uncommon type of CD30-positive T-cell lymphoma, and it very rarely affects the forehead. We report the case of a 68-year-old male presenting with an ulcerative lesion on the right forehead, initially suspected as a benign condition. Fine needle aspiration suggested a lymphoproliferative disorder, with biopsy and immunohistochemistry confirming primary cutaneous ALCL (CD30-positive, anaplastic lymphoma kinase [ALK]-negative).

Introduction: Limited information exists on next-generation sequencing (NGS) success for lung tumors of 30 mm or less. We aimed to compare NGS success rates across biopsy techniques for these tumors, assess DNA sequencing quality, and verify reliability against surgical resection results.

Methods: We used data from the Initiative for Early Lung Cancer Research on Treatment study, including patients with lung tumors measuring 30 mm or less who had surgery and NGS on biopsies since 2016.

Objective: To confirm that saline sealing of the needle trace after computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy reduces the incidence of pneumothorax and chest tube insertion, and to observe its effects on pulmonary hemorrhage and hemoptysis.

Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent CT-guided lung biopsy at our hospital between January 2018 and January 2024 were included in the study. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether the needle trace was sealed with saline after tissue sampling.
