Outcome and diagnostic reproducibility of the thyroid cytology “indeterminate categories” SIAPEC/SIE 2014 in a consecutive series of 302 cases

ConclusionsIn this real-life experience, the sub-classification of TIR3A and TIR3B slightly increased the overall prevalence of “indeterminate” diagnoses. Malignancy rates were higher than estimated for both TIR3A and TIR3B categories. Agreement among observers highly depended on pathologist’s training.
