Abstract:
The aim of this study was to report the clinical characteristics of 13 patients with Hürthle carcinoma. In the vast majority of them, disease was suspected by a palpable thyroid nodule. The results of preoperative examination (scintigraphy, ultrasonography, thyroglobulin) are also discussed as well as the pathological aspects and follow-up characteristics after total thyroidectomy.
