Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Surgical Pathology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Hürthle cell lesions of the thyroid are rare.
  • Accurate diagnosis and treatment are crucial for patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the clinical and histopathological features of Hürthle cell lesions.
  • To evaluate treatment outcomes and suggest optimal management strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective chart review of nine Hürthle cell lesion cases.
  • Inclusion of physician contact, patient follow-up, and histopathological review.

Main Results:

  • Two cases (22%) were Hürthle cell hyperplasia.
  • Seven cases (78%) were Hürthle cell tumors: 3 carcinomas (33%) and 4 adenomas (44%).
  • Adenoma prognosis was independent of surgical treatment extent.

Conclusions:

  • Lobectomy with isthmectomy may suffice for Hürthle cell adenoma.
  • Radical surgery is recommended only for histologically malignant Hürthle cell lesions.
