Abstract

Objective: In this study, the clinical features of thyroid nodules above 6 cm which is a rare pathology was examined. Preoperative cytologic results of Fine Niddle Aspiration Biopsi (FNAB) material and postoperative histopatological results of thyroidectomy material were compared. Material and Method: A total of 541 patients who were operated due to nodular goiter in between 2004-2012 were examined. The 27 patients with goiter above 6 cm was included to the study. All demographic findings were collected. All patients were evaluated with preoperative computed tomography. Preoperative FNAB results and postoperative histopatological results were compared.Result: The 27 patients with goiter above 6 cm were examined. In 10 patients there was airway obstruction in computed tomography. The thyroid malignancy was detected in 1 patients in FNAB. There were 2 (7.4%) malignancy after histopathological examination of thyroidectomy material. There were no permanent complication. There were transient complication in 3 (11.1 %) patients.Conclusion: Thyroid nodule above 6 cm is a rare pathology. Patients with nodul above 6 cm usually need surgery due to airway obstruction or suspicion of malignancy.Cytological examination of FNAB material has high sensitivity for diagnosing malignancy.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada ender olarak görülen 6 cm ve üzerindeki tiroid nodüllerinin neden olabileceği klinik bulgular ile bu nodüllerin ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsi (İİAB) sonrası sitopatolojik inceleme ve postoperatif tiroidektomi materyallerinin histopatoloji inceleme sonuçlarının karşılaştırılması amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma 2004-2012 yılları arasında nodüler guatr nedeniyle opere edilen 541 hasta içinden nodül boyutları 6 cm ve üzeri olan 27 hasta üzerinde yapılmıştır. Hastaların demografik bilgileri kaydedilmiştir. Hastaların tamamında bilgisayarlı tomografi çekilmiştir. Preoperatif İİAB ve sitopatoloji sonuçlarıyla, postoperatif histopatoloji sonuçları karşılaştırılmıştır.Bulgular: Tiroid nodül boyutu 6 cm ve üzeri olan 27 hasta incelendi. Yirmiyedi hastadan 10'unda (% 37.1) bilgisayarlı boyun tomografisi ile hava yolu obstruksiyon bulguları izlenirken preoperatif İİAB'si yapılan 1 (% 3.7) hastanın sitopatolojik incelemesi sonucu malignite saptanmıştır. Postoperatif 2 (% 7.4) hastanın patolojik inceleme sonucu malign olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Hastaların tamamında kalıcı komplikasyon izlenmezken, 3 hastada (% 11.1) geçici komplikasyonlar görülmüştür.Sonuç: Tiroid bezinde 6 cm ve üzeri tiroid nodüllerine nadir olarak rastlanmaktadır. Altı cm ve üzeri tiroid nodülü bulunan hastalarda hava yolu obstrüksiyonu ve malignite nedeniyle cerrahi girişim uygun bir yaklaşımdır. Bu çalışmada preoperatif İİAB sonrası sitolojik değerlendirmelerin malignite tanısında yüksek oranda duyarlılığa sahip olduğu görülmüştür.
