Overview
Thyroid adenoma may be classified according to the histology into 3 subtypes/groups: follicular adenoma, papillary adenoma, and signet cell adenoma.
Classification
- Thyroid adenomas are classified into 2 subtype: follicular adenoma and others.
- Almost all thyroid adenomas are follicular adenomas.[1] Others include papillary adenoma and signet cell adenoma which are very rare.
- Follicular adenomas can be described as "cold", "warm", or "hot" depending on their level of function.[2]
- Histopathologically, follicular adenomas can be classified according to their cellular architecture and relative amounts of cellularity and colloid into the following types depicted in the flowchart.
- Below is a table with the description of different types of follicular adenoma:
