| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT: This is a prospective study of 298 post-thyroidectomy specimens, . Analysis of the biopsies obtained showed 59% colloid goiter (nodular and diffuse), 21.5% benign thyroid adenoma, and 7.8% carcinoma of the thyroid, of which papillary carcinoma was the commonest. From this series, it seems that there is an increase in the incidence of thyroid malignancy in our province. The aim of this study is to discuss the histopathologic view of post thyroidectomy specimens and their age and sex distribution in comparison with previous reports. | ||
