Abstract excerpt
Genetic profiling is important for assisting the management of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). Although whole-exome sequencing (WES) of surgically resected PTMC tissue has been performed and revealed potential prognostic biomarkers, its application in PTMC fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens has not been explored. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of WES using FNA specimens of PTMC. Five...
