Abstract
The aim of the study is to identify nodular formations of the thyroid gland among the population of the city of Tashkent with subsequent morphological verification to exclude the oncological nature of the formation. On the basis of the Center for Endocrinology named after Academician Yolkin Kholmatovich Turakulov in the city of Tashkent, 196 fine-needle aspiration biopsies of thyroid nodules under the control of ultrasound navigation were performed in the period 2020-2021. In 98.3% of cases, nodular formations were of a benign nature, which corresponds to world statistics, confirming that thyroid cancer is a rather infrequent pathology, however, it is necessary to have even greater vigilance in order not to miss a malignant neoplasm. The majority of patients with thyroid pathology, in comparison with the statistical data, the prevalence of thyroid cancer in the city of Tashkent, remains outside the diagnostic study, which increases the likelihood of missing this pathology, while fine needle aspiration biopsy is the "gold standard" in the early diagnosis of cancer at early stage.
