Clinical presentation  It can present as multinodular or solitary nodular goitre.  The diagnosis is confirmed after an ultrasound scan reveals features of malignancy like microcalcifications  Metastasis in flat bones: when a patient with a thyroid [slideshare.net]

Multifocal papillary carcinoma is the most frequent presentation of familial nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma, and based on clinico-pathologic findings it is divided into 2 groups. [journals.lww.com]

The workup revealed a nodular thyroid gland with a follicular lesion on fine-needle aspiration. [karger.com]

The workup may also include having blood drawn to check the function of your thyroid. Remember, you can have a properly functioning thyroid gland and be diagnosed with Hürthle cell carcinoma. [oncolink.org]

Treatment for all PTC patients with a positive family history, regardless of variant, should entail a workup and evaluation including FNA of subcentimeter nodules, screening at a younger age, and earlier surgical intervention. [omicsonline.org]

Five percent of the population can have thyroid nodules, and the majority will be benign.[6] Appropriate workup includes an ultrasound of the neck, followed by lab studies. [en.wikipedia.org]

Treatment In most hospitals, a team of specialists called a multidisciplinary team will advise on the best treatment for you. Treatment has a very high chance of curing papillary thyroid and follicular thyroid cancer. [makesensecampaign.eu]

Treatment  Treatment of primary:  Total thyroidectomy is always preferred  Treatment of the metastasis:  After total thyroidectomy a whole body scan is done to look for metastasis in the bone. [slideshare.net]

Treatment may be repeated after 6 to 12 months to ablate any remaining thyroid tissue. [msdmanuals.com]
