INTRODUCTION Secondary malignancy of the thyroid gland is uncommon, but it is a problem requiring ongoing recognition. As it is more common than primary thyroid malignancy, metastatic disease involving the thyroid gland should be actively excluded in a patient with enlarging or abnormal thyroid gland and a previously known primary tumour. CLINICAL PICTURE We report 2 cases of primary colon ca...

Introduction The incidence of metastatic thyroid tumours range from 2 to 3% of all thyroid cancer cases. Histological and immunohistochemical examination plays a decisive role in metastasis recognition. Metastases to the thyroid gland are rarely identified in cytological diagnostics. Patients who were postoperatively recognized with metastasis to the thyroid gland were diagnosed in cytological ...

A thyroid disease is a medical condition impairing the function of the thyroid. The thyroid hormones act on nearly every cell in the body. Imbalance in production of thyroid hormones arises from dysfunction of the thyroid gland itself, the pituitary gland, which produces thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), or the hypothalamus, which regulates the pituitary gland via thyrotropin-releasing hormone...

The association between TSH and serum lipids in people with no apparent thyroid dysfunction is less understood. We have investigated the association between normal thyroid function, defined as TSH within the reference range and serum lipids concentrations. Cross-sectional, population based study with 1785 individuals without known thyroid dysfunction. We calculated mean concentrations of total ...

Objectives: The aim of the study is to determine correlation between thyroid gland elasticity with thyroxine, thyroid-stimulating hormone levels, age, gender and volume in normal population. Methods: was conducted 105 healthy cases. Thyroid evaluated axial plan using ultrasonography. Results: relationship evaluated. mean 11.95 ± 9.23 mm3. A moderate negative found kPa value observed from elasto...

OBJECTIVE Interferon-beta (IFN-β) is widely used in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. High incidence of thyroid dysfunction has been reported after administration of IFN-β in MS patients. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of IFN-β1a therapy on simultaneous thyroid and salivary gland function in patients with MS using quant...

Thyroid gland disorders of various types; congenital , infectious, autoimmune, benign and malignant lesions. In the present study we have focused on all the disorders with special reference to age, sex, etiology, etiopathogenesis, complication and pathological diagnostic part of thyroid lesions. This study helps in the detection of thyroid lesions in the early diagnosis, treatment and assessmen...

Objective: The thyroid gland is susceptible to the formation of nodules. Therefore, due to the critical role of selenium in the function of the thyroid gland, the impact of this element on the size and volume of this organ and its nodules were examined. Materials and Methods: During three months, two groups consisting of 30 patients with benign thyroid nodules who were referred to Baghaeipour ...
