ABSTRACT
Reporting fine-needle aspiration of thyroid nodules in the Bethesda classification is a practice widely used internationally and by us. The revised third edition of the Bethesda System of Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology brings changes in terminology, content, and new chapters. In terms of terminology, an obvious change is the removal of the two-word names of three categories while maintaining the six diagnostic categories of the previous versions - new BI - non-diag- nostic, BIII - atypia of undetermined significance, BIV - follicular neoplasia. In the detailed description of the findings within the individual categories, the ter- minological changes adopted by the fifth edition of the WHO classification of thyroid neoplasia are respected - in particular, the recommended name follicular thyroid nodular disease for the most frequently represented category BII - benign. In the evaluation itself, the diagnostic specifications accepted by the current WHO classification of histopathological findings are reflected in the individual categories - if they are applicable at the cytological level. Targeted attention will need to be paid to high grade features. The revised version brings new chapters dedicated to molecular testing and evaluation of the paediatric population.
