Purpose: To investigate the clinical characteristics of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) with Bethesda category III (AUS/FLUS) by fine needle aspiration (FNA) and to assisted the precision treatment. Methods:A total of 290 patients who underwent thyroidectomies or thyroid lobectomies from August 2015 to September 2020, following a diagnosis of Bethesda category III (AUS/FLUS) from preoperative thyroid FNA were investigated. Groups: In order to investigate the clinopathologic characteristics, the patients, were grouped according to Cytology,Gender, Tumor size.
