Resum

The thyroid nodule is a common clinical entity and, in most cases, benign. The clinical importance of evaluation lies mainly in the screening for thyroid cancer, which is present at 4.0 to 6.5% of thyroid nodules. The clinical and ultrasonographic thyroid nodule can guide us about the benign / malignant lesion, but not conclusive. Thanks to the cytological diagnosis obtained by fine needle aspiration (FNA) can establish with some certainty, the most successful therapeutic procedure.
