Surgical biopsy: Hi. Going just on what you've told us, you probably need a surgical biopsy. A Hurthle cell neoplasm can be either benign or cancer, and the cytopathology often cannot make the distinction. Therefore, to exclude or confirm cancer will require a surgical biopsy. But I don't have the data. Your doc will tell you what's needed. Good luck!
