Efficiency of fine-needle aspiration biopsy in follow-up of thyroid nodules: Case report-primary thyroid lymphoma

Tiroidin primer lenfoması, tüm tiroid tümörlerinin yaklaşık olarak %5ini ve extranodallenfomaların %3ünden azını oluşturup, oldukça nadirdir. Tipik olarak, hızlı büyüyen kitleye bağlıbası semptomları ile tanı alırlar. Primer tiroid lenfoma tanısı için mutlaka biyopsi gereklidir. Enyaygın formları, high grade Diffüz büyük B hücreli lenfoma ve MALT lenfomadır. Tedavisi diğertiroid malignitelerinden farklı olduğu için tanı konulması oldukça önemlidir. Bu yazıda, primertiroid lenfoma tanısı konulan olgunun sunulması amaçlandı.
