Abstract
Background The Bethesda system (TBS) for reporting thyroid cytopathology recommends an “atypia of undetermined significance (AUS)” rate of 10%. Recent data suggest that this category might be overused when the rate of cases with molecular positive results is low. As a quality metric, we calculated the AUS and positive call rates for our cytology lab and each cytopathologist.
