Study Description

Brief Summary: Although anamnesis and physical examination remain the place in the evaluation of patients today; laboratory values, imaging methods and pathology results have come to the fore in the decision-making of surgery for patients. As a result of all other criteria, a follow-up decision can be changed in a patient with a single fine needle aspiration biopsy result, or despite all the examinations the investigators have, a clear result cannot be achieved, and patient management may be disrupted. A holistic approach to thyroid gland pathologies is planned thanks to the scoring system that will be created in this study.

Detailed Description: In routine clinical practice, the criteria the investigators consider during the pre - op period in patients evaluated due to thyroid pathologies include anamnesis, physical examination, laboratory values, especially thyroid function, thyroid-neck ultrasonographies, fine needle aspiration biopsies, according to which decisions about operation or nonoperative follow-up are made with the patient. The investigators aim to create a common scoring system by taking into account the pathology results of patients who have undergone thyroidectomy and comparing these results with the results of pre-op examination and thus to address patient management in a more objective and comprehensive way.
