Risk factors associated with malignancy and with triage to surgery in thyroid nodules classified as Bethesda category IV (FN/SFN)
ConclusionsOur findings showed that using predictive factors for malignancy in the Bethesda IV category as risk indices, 17% of patients who had nodules without any risk factors could be spared surgery. Predictive indices could be considered for the malignancy risk and for selection of patients for surgery. (Source: Diagnostic Cytopathology)

Effusion ‐based lymphoma with morphological regression but with clonal genetic features after aspiration
Effusion‐based lymphoma (EBL) is a rare but distinct entity of large B‐cell lymphoma in effusion without association with human herpes virus‐8 (HHV‐8). Spontaneous regression after pleurocentesis has been observed; but to our knowledge, there are no reports on the morphological and molecular features of subsequent aspirations in regressing cases. Here, we report the case of a 92‐year‐old male with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, who presented with right pleural effusion. He had no human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B virus, or hepatitis C virus infection, and CT scans revealed no mass lesion. The fi...

Cancer risk and clinicopathological characteristics of thyroid nodules harboring thyroid ‐stimulating hormone receptor gene mutations
ConclusionWe report that TSHR mutations occur in ∼5% thyroid nodules in a large consecutive series with indeterminate cytology. TSHR mutations may be associated with an increased cancer risk when present at high allelic frequency, even when the nodule is hyperfunctioning. Benign nodules were however most strongly correlated with TSHR mutations at low allelic frequency. (Source: Diagnostic Cytopathology)
