'''Hürthle cell neoplasm''' is a rare tumour of the [[thyroid gland]] that can have a benign or malignant behaviour. | |||
==General== | |||
*Incidence: uncommon. | |||
*This is a general category - includes: | |||
**Hürthle cell adenoma. | |||
**Hürthle cell carcinoma. | |||
*Some advocate ''total thyroidectomy'' for all Hürthle cell neoplasms, as it is difficult to reliably differentiate adenomas and carcinomas.<ref name=pmid9697901>{{Cite journal | last1 = Wasvary | first1 = H. | last2 = Czako | first2 = P. | last3 = Poulik | first3 = J. | last4 = Lucas | first4 = R. | title = Unilateral lobectomy for Hurthle cell adenoma. | journal = Am Surg | volume = 64 | issue = 8 | pages = 729-32; discussion 732-3 | month = Aug | year = 1998 | doi = | PMID = 9697901 }}</ref> | |||
*It can be understood as a special type of ''follicular neoplasm'' (including ''[[follicular thyroid adenoma]]'' and ''[[follicular thyroid carcinoma]]'').<ref name=Ref_EP104>{{Ref EP|104}}</ref> | |||

===Adenoma versus carcinoma=== | |||

*Lymphovascular invasion. | |||
*Capsular invasion. | |||
===Gross=== | |||
*Yellow. | |||
*Encapsulated. | |||
==Microscopic== | |||
Features:<ref name=Ref_EP104>{{Ref EP|104}}</ref> | |||
*Oncocytes >= 75% of cells: | |||
**Abundant granular, eosinophilic cytoplasm. | |||
**Round regular nucleus +/- prominent nucleolus. | |||
*+/-Degenerative changes. | |||
