Thyroid Gland History I. • China (2nd mill.b.C.) description of goitre • (Charvát 1935) • Vitruvius (16.a.C.) goitre in the Alpine region • Warton (1656) „ Adenographia“ the term glandula thyreoidea • Luschka(1860) mechanical support of the laryngeal structures
Thyroid Gland History II. • Basedow (1840) hyperthyreosis • Köstl (1855 - Wien): • Der endemische Kretinismus als Gegenstand • der öffentlichen Fürsorge (habilit. thesis) • Gull(1873) hypothyreosis • Murray(1883) Therapy with bovinethyroid extracts
Thyroid Gland History III • Hashimoto (1912) struma lymphomatosa • Kendall (1914):Tyroxine discovery • Aron a Loebe(1929) TSHdiscovery • Adams a Purves(1952) LATS discovery
Thyroid Gland- embryology and fetal endocrinology • mouth epithelium, end of the 1st iu. month ductus thyreoglosus • lateral pharynx • ultimobranchial bodies C- cells. • parathyroid glands • fetal secretion starts at 12 weeks • effect on GROWTH • effect on DIFFERENTIATION
Thyroid Gland- anatomy • Weight in adults 15-20g • over60g(7g in a neonate)struma • lobus dexter • isthmus et lobus pyramidalis • lobus sinister • aberant, accesory, ectopic gland (polyclonality should help to tell from ca)
Thyroid Gland- physiology and regulations • hypothalamohypophysothyreoidal axis (TRH,TSH) • enzymes - deiodases • autoregulation influenced by iodine intake • immune system
Clinic scintigraphy SONOGRAPHY CT Pathology (biopsy) FNAB histology Morphological Thyroid Investigation
Main Tasks in the Thyroid Cytology • reduction of the unnecessary surgery • diagnosis of subclinical inflammation • EARLY DIAGNOSIS of NEOPLASMS
Thyroid Cytology - getting sample • needle 0.6-0.8mm • min. 2 punctions • aspiration • nonaspiration • cyst: evacuate and aspirate with the second punction the periphery • fluid: whole volume for cytology
Fixation air dried etanol / spray (cytospin) CYTOBLOCK Staining: MGG HE polychrom all histo. imunocyto TGB,calcitonin, parathormon Thyroid Cytology- processing
Regressive changes of thyroid gland • dystrophy: amyloid deposits, calcification • atrophy: due to the lack of TSH stimmulation, postinflammatory • necrosis: only in hyperplastic or neoplastic goitre
Thyreoiditis • NON-SPECIFIC • purulent • non-specific granulomatose de Quervain • lymphocytic (Hashimoto) • hypertrophic • atrofic • focal • invasive sclerosing Riedel • SPECIFIC • tbc • syfilis • sarcoidosis
Non-Specific Granulomatose Thyreoiditis de Quervain (1904) • Synonyma: „Giant cell“ • „Subacute non-purulent“ • Clin.features: Oedema, pain, eufunction, may be also silent • Histol. features: dispersegranulomas • with giant cells • Course: spontaneous healing by 2-4 weeks
Thyreoiditis lymphoplasmocellularis Hashimoto - HTHashimoto, H.: • Zur Kenntniss der lymphomatösen Veränderung der Schilddrüse • (struma lymphomatosa) • Arch.f. klin. Chir. 97, 1912, 219
Original HT Description • Macro - diff. parenchymatose goitre firm, elastic, gray-yellow Micro - diffuse lymfoplasmocellular lymph. folicules ONCOCYTES
Etiopathogenesis of HT • Etiology:unclear - viri ? • Pathogenesis: • dysregulation of T lymphocytes • IL-1 expression Fas molecules on the surface of thyreocytes (they have FasL) apoptosis activation • Activity: CD 44 proteoglycan influencing migration and lymphocyte proliferation, and metastasizing
Course of HT a) progressive • oncocytic transformation loss of thyreocytes, • transformation to a lymph- node-with-ca- meta image • hyperfunction folowed by hypofunction
Course of HT b) regressive • loss of parenchyma, • fibrosis • hypofunction
Course of HT c) neoplasia • carcinoma • lymphoma (mostly B - MALT)
Thyroid Malignant Lymphomas • 2% thyroid primary malignancies • mostly women with HT • clinically rapid growth, often hypothyreosis • mostly B (MALT), features of lymphoepithelial lesion • both LG and HG • diff. dg. HT • clinical and cytology suspicion • dg. excision
Chronic Sclerosing Thyreoiditis Riedel (1910) • Synonyma:„Invasive Fibrotising“ „ Iron hard (eisenharte) goitre“ • Clin.features: • slight assym. edema • fixation to surrounding structures • eu- or hypofunction • tracheal stenosis • recurrens paresis • Histol. features: • tissue destruction • fibrotisation • fixation to surrounding structures • involment of the neck vessels • Course: Stabilisation, possible progression
Thyreoidal Syndromes • hypothyreosis • inborn – cretinism • endemic, sporadic • acquired – myxedema • hyperthyreosis - thyreotoxicosis
Hypothyreosis CRETINISMUS • disturbances of growth & differentiation BRAIN LUNG BONE
Acquired Hypothyreosis - MYXEDEMA • decreased metabolism • bradycardia, low blood pressure, water retention, obstipation • intolerance of cold • lowered lipolysis • weight increase • hyperlipemia ATHEROSCLEROSIS
Thyreoidal Syndromes • hypothyreosis • inborn – cretinism • endemic, sporadic • acquired – myxedema • hyperthyreosis - thyreotoxicosis
Hyperthyreosis • increased metabolism • tachycardia, high blood pressure, fibrilation, • hypercalciuria, diarrhoe • intolerance of warm • increased lipolysis, glycogenolysis • weight decrease • hyperglycemia, diabetes • muscle weekness, insomnia, exophtalmus, pretibial myxedema
Processing of Thyroid Resecate • orientation • division • lobus dx. • isthmus (+lobus pyramidalis) • lobus sin. • cutting in cca 3mm thick lamellae • revision and extensive/complete blocking of the encapsulated nodules periphery • any suspicious focus for histology
Histological diagnosis microfollicular adenoma follicular carcinoma Cytological features highly cellular smears few colloid microfollicular formations thyreocytes regular, small or slightly enlarged bare nuclei regressive changes: mostly absent Folicular Neoplasia (proliferating microfollicular lesion)
Oncocytic Tumours • adenoma • architecture follicular, trabecular • cellular atypiae without predictive value for biological behaviour • more risk in case of solid architecture • EXCLUDE • ANGIOINVASION, CAPSULOINVASION
Oncocytic Tumours • carcinoma • oncopapillary (may lack ground glass nuclei !) • oncofollicular • must exhibit • ANGIOINVASION and/or • CAPSULOINVASION (all capsule thickness with extracapsular expansion)
