FNA results what do they mean?

[lucyloo22]

Hi I had my results from my fna back today and just wondered if anyone can help with what they mean. I don't have an appointment with endo until the end of next month for him to go through them with me.

Cytological examination reveals groups of bland follicular epithelial cells, in the background there are inflammatory cells with lobules of colloid.

The appearance suggests a benign colloid goitre.

Lucyloo22,

That's very good news, the nodule/s in the goitre are not cancerous.
