Özet
Amiloid guatr tiroid dokusunda diffüz yada lokalize büyümeye neden olan yoğun amiloid birikimine bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan klinik bir antitedir ve malignite ile karışabilir. Klinik olarak asemptomatik olabileceği gibi non spesifik semptomlara da yol açabilir. Primer amiloid guatrın, tiroidde amiloid birikimine yol açan diğer tiplerinden ayırt edilmesi önemlidir.
