Keywords:
nódulos tiroideos, glándula tiroides, necropsia, neoplasmas de la tiroides (es)Downloads
Se ha examinado la glándula tiroides en 1000 autopsias consecutivamente practicadas entre 1955 y 1970 habiéndose descartado 40 casos en los que el motivo de muerte fue carcinoma tiroideo. De los 960 casos restantes, se observaron nódulos tiroideos en 290, 30 por ciento con evidencia macroscópica en 275; en 15 casos la nodularidad fue tan sólo apreciable en los cortes microscópicos. De aquellos nódulos observables macroscópicamente 57, 21 por ciento eran nódulos únicos y 218, 74 por ciento nódulos múltiples. De importancia ha sido también el hallazgo de 3 carcinomas papilares ocultos y de 26 casos de invasión metastásica de la glándula tiroides, proveniente principalmente de carcinomas de seno, linfomas y de carcinomas escamocelulares de orofaringe, esófago o laringe.
Pathological examintion of thyroid glands obtained at 1.000 autopsies consecutively performed between the years 1955 and 1970 has been carried out: 40 patients in which the primary cause of dealth was thyroid carcinoma were not included. Thyroid nodules were found in 290. 30 per cent of 960 glands. Nodules were macroscopically evident en 275: in 15 lacking adequate macroscopic description the diagnosis of nodularity was made histologically 57, 21 per cent of the macroscopically visible nodules were single and 218, 74 per cent were multiple. Other important findings included 3 cases of occult papillary carcinoma and 26 metastatic invasion of the thyroid gland, mainly from breast carcinomas, lymphomas and squamous cell tumors of the pharynx, larynx and esophagus.
