Abstract
In this paper we review the controversies in diagnostic approaches to follicular thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology. The authors consider some of the controversies surrounding the indeterminate follicular thyroid nodule, including the definition and the postoperative outcome. Among the techniques that may improve preoperative diagnostic accuracy are large needle aspiration biopsy and immunohistochemistry for galectin-3.
