The previous fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of thyroid nodules of 879 cases diagnosed histopathologically between 2010 and 2017 was examined. The FNAB results determined according to the Bethesda system were matched with tissue diagnoses, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy rates were investigated according to cytology methods. Sensitivity, specificity, Positive predictive value (PPV), Negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy rates were found in all FNAB results (in units of %; Sensitivity; 84.7, Specificity; 81.1, PPV; 74.1, NPV; 89.2, Accuracy; 82.5). All of the cytological evaluation methods of thyroid FNABs were found to be reliable and effective (Generally, the results are 80% and above). Specificity and accuracy rates study, we recommend the use of the LBC method, which seems to have the highest sensitivity (taking into account its technical advantages), instead of CS. However, we think that both CS and LBC methods should be evaluated by supporting them with cell block sections. Hepatitis C virus (HCV), which has no protective vaccine, is a common cause of chronic hepatitis, which is a severe public health threat. There are differences in nucleotide and amino acid sequences in different regions of the HCV genome. As a result of these differences, HCV has been shown to have at least seven major genotypes and many subtypes. In Turkey, the prevalence of genotype 1 is between 51.7% and 97.1%, the highest rate among all genotypes, while subtype 1b is the genotype with the highest rate. It is important to detect mixed genotype infection reliably as it causes treatment failure. This study aims to reveal the distribution of the HCV genotyp
