This report details a rare thyroid pseudolymphoma case, showing benign lymphoid and plasma cell features. Findings suggest a reactive process, distinct from malignant lymphoma.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Pathology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Thyroid pseudolymphoma is a rare condition.
  • Distinguishing benign reactive lymphoid hyperplasia from malignant lymphoma is crucial for patient management.

Observation:

  • A case of thyroid pseudolymphoma is presented.
  • Histological examination revealed well-demarcated tumor with mature lymphocytes, germinal centers, and plasma cells.

Findings:

  • Immunohistochemistry showed T- and B-cell distribution similar to reactive lymph nodes.
  • The plasma cell infiltrate was polyclonal, indicating a reactive, non-neoplastic process.

Implications:

  • These histological and immunohistochemical findings support classifying this as pseudolymphoma, analogous to similar entities in other organs.
