Overview
The histological analysis in Hashimoto's thyroiditis may show inflammatory cell infiltration and hurthle cells.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Gross Pathology
- The gland is usually diffusely enlarged, firm, and slightly lobular. The capsule is intact, and the cut surface is light-tan and has a slight lobular pattern.
- At autopsy, significant subarachnoid hemorrhage from the ruptured berry aneurysm was documented. In addition, the thyroid gland was mildly enlarged and firm. On cut section, the tissue was slightly pale.
