Abstract:
Objective To investigate clinical features,diagnosis and surgery treatment of Hashimoto thyroiditis associated with thyroid carcinoma. Method Twenty-four cases of Hashimoto thyroiditis diagnosed by surgical pathology from January 2004 to December 2009 were associated with thyroid carcinoma. Results In the all 24 cases,22 cases (91.7% ,22/24) were associated with papillary thyroid carcinoma,including 12 cases (50.0% ,12/24) of micropapillary thyroid carcinoma,and 2 cases (8.3%, 2/24) were associated with medullay thyroid carcinoma. Thyroid colour ultrasound Doppler indicated that diffuse enlargement of thyroid with nodes occurred in 21 cases,account for 87.5%(21/24), single node occurred in 15 cases,account for 62.5%(15/24), 12 cases demonstrated thyroid nodes with calcification,account for 50.0%(12/24). Eight cases were examinated by fine-needle aspiration cytology biopsy(FNACB) before operation,examing results of 3 indicated thyroid carcinoma, account for 37.5%. Twenty cases were followed up 2 months to 6 years,no thyroid carcinoma recurred,4 cases missed. Conclusions Thyroid colour ultrasound Doppler examination plays an important role in diagnosis of Hashimoto thyroiditis associated with thyroid carcinoma before operation. It is necessary to investigate progressively the role of FNACB in diagnosis of Hashimoto thyroiditis associated with thyroid carcinoma before operation. Surgical exploration might become an important approach in diagnosis and treatment of Hashimoto thyroiditis associated with thyroid carcinoma.
