Overview
The most important causes of thyroid nodule development include: Multinodular (sporadic) goiter, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, cysts, macrofollicular/microfollicular adenomas, childhood radioiodine exposure, familial history, and gene mutations include N&H ras, RET, Gsp, C-MET (α and β subunit), TRK, EGF / EGF-R, and P53 mutation.
Causes
The most important causes of thyroid nodule development include:
- Causes of benign thyroid nodule:
- Multinodular (sporadic) goiter ("colloid adenoma")
- Hashimoto's (chronic lymphocytic) thyroiditis
- Cysts (colloid, simple, or hemorrhagic)
- Follicular adenomas
- Macrofollicular adenomas
- Microfollicular or cellular adenomas
- Hürthle cell (oxyphil cell) adenomas
- Macro- or microfollicular patterns
- Causes of malignant nodule mutations:
- Childhood radioiodine exposure
- Familial history
The most important genes which their mutation can lead to thyroid cancer include:
