A total of 274 thyroid cases attending the outpatient department in Government General Hospital, Kadapa were sent for FNAC to the Department of Pathology, all these cases were categorised based on cyto- morphological features obtained on FNAC and later correlated with Histopathological findings. Results: 44 (16.08%) cases were categorised as inflammatory lesion. 208 (75.91%) cases were categorised as functional disorders like nodular goitre, nodular goitre with cystic degeneration. 10 (3.64%) cases were categorised as follicular neoplasm.
