About this trial

The main hypothesis of this study is that preoperative hemogram parameters can be used as biomarkers for malignancy in patients with thyroid nodule Bethesda 3 cytology.

The secondary hypothesis is that BRAF molecular testing has a high predictive value in predicting malignancy in patients with thyroid nodule Bethesda 3 cytology.

Primary outcome: Preoperative hemogram parameters. Secondary outcome: BRAF positivity.
