“…(Table 9) In our study, thyroid malignancy was diagnosed in 5.4% (n=13) of all cases. The finding is similar to the study conducted by Raheem et al 7 (4.6%) but slightly lower than the 16% and 18% in Modi et al 8 and Haque et al 14 respectively as shown in Table 10. In this study, most of the patients had age from 30-49 years.…”

Background: The thyroid gland is an important endocrine organ required for the regulation of the basal metabolic rate. It also plays a very important role in growth. Thyroid disorders have great importance because most thyroid diseases are curable. In any area, thyroid gland disorders have a variable incidence and prevalence depending upon several factors. The objective of the study is to find out the relation of age and gender with the frequency of various thyroid lesions.Materials & Methods: It was a descriptive, cross-sectional study carried out on thyroidectomy specimens received at the histopathology laboratory of Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi. From January 2015 to June 2018, 242 thyroidectomy specimens were selected based on non-probability consecutive sampling. Reports with no clear-cut definitive diagnosis were excluded. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.Results: In our study of 242 thyroidectomy specimens, patients' age ranged from 4 to 70 years. 40 to 49 years was the peak age and the mean age was 37.1 years. The female to male ratio was 6.4:1. Of 242 cases, 18(7.4%) were neoplastic thyroid lesions and 224(92.6%) were non-neoplastic ones. Hyperplastic lesions were the most common in our study. The frequency of the inflammatory lesion was 4.1% with Hashimoto thyroiditis (80%) being the most common. The frequency of benign neoplasm was 2.1%. A follicular adenoma was the only benign thyroid neoplasm in our study. The frequency of malignant neoplasm was 5.4%. The most common subtype of thyroid malignancy was papillary thyroid carcinoma (76.9% of the malignant cases). Among a total of 242 cases, 83.1%(n=201) patients had only one presenting complaint (neck swelling). Conclusion: Thyroid disorders are more common in females compared to males. The hyperplastic lesion is the most common type seen. In this study, the most common benign neoplasm is follicular adenoma and the most common malignant neoplasm is papillary carcinoma. Neck swelling is the commonest presenting complaint in our study participants.

INTRODUCTION: Thyroid disorders are most common endocrine disorders seen worldwide, next to pancreatic disorders. They exhibit wide range of morphological patterns with few challenges, which explains the great interest of pathologists in these lesions. AIM: To evaluate the histopathological spectrum of lesions in thyroidectomy specimens. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital for a period of 3 years. All thyroidectomy specimens received in the department of pathology were studied by routine parafn processing and haematoxylin & eosin staining. Diseases were classied into various non-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions based on histomorphology. RESULTS: Total 71 specimens were included in the study. Highest incidence was observed in 5th decade and showed female predominance (87.32%). Non-neoplastic lesions accounted for 53 cases (74.64%) and neoplastic lesions constituted 18 cases (25.36%). The commonest non-neoplastic lesion was multinodular goitre and commonest neoplastic lesion was papillary thyroid carcinoma. However, we faced few challenges in reporting both non-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions. CONCLUSION: In our study thyroid diseases showed a denite female predominance, most of them occurring in 5th decade. Non-neoplastic lesions predominated over neoplastic lesions. Among the neoplastic, malignant lesions outnumbered the benign ones, major constituent being papillary thyroid carcinoma.
