From a 40-year-old female patient. Most of the tumor is bound by a capsule (irregular whitish band around the lighter central nodule). However, the capsule is breached and there is tumor growth outside it (marked with a star). The scale is millimeters.
Immersed in absolute alcohol, the cut surface of this specimen demonstrates the follicular architecture very nicely. Choose the "Original" size to really see the detail.

Chris Holsinger, M.D., Associate Professor in the Department of Head and Neck Surgery, is applying technology to the neck and thyroid gland. He was the first ENT surgeon in the United States to perform a robotic thyroidectomy, using Dr. Woong Youn Chung's technique, which allows the removal of tumors from these sites through an incision in the upper arm without carbon dioxide insufflation.

This is an unusual variant of follicular neoplasm of the thyroid gland. It has been described in follicular adenomas, however, this lesion did show destructive capsular invasion. An immunostain for thyroglobulin is on the right one half of the image.

Does it seem like no matter how hard you try you can’t lose weight? Maybe you start to think your thyroid is to blame for your inability to lose weight.
I feel as though I am always being choked by some unseen force (my thyroid nodule) 24/7. The presure is so great that it makes my ear ache.

Because you know your animals best you will be the first to notice abnormal behavior and therefore we have compiled a list of symptoms which should not be ignored and when they appear should contact the emergency vet soon!
1. Multiple urination and urination problems - These symptoms can often indicate a wide range of diseases, including behavioral problems, kidney failure, diabetes, thyroid problems, urinary tract infections, and more. If you think your dog is drinking or urinating excessively, bring it to the emergency vet for inspection
Signs such as repeated attempts to urinate, urinary incontinence, and blood urination can result from a wide variety of factors. From urinary tract infection to urinary incontinence without treatment can eventually lead to death. Therefore, if such signs appear, it is recommended to contact an emergency vet.
2. Loss of appetite or cessation of eating - Loss of appetite in our dog can be due to many different reasons and in the way it is among the first signs that appear in the condition of illness.
Loss of appetite and lack of eating per se (if they last longer than 24 hours) may affect and affect the health of the dog regardless of the cause of the initial cause. In such a situation it is recommended to diagnose the cause and treat it quickly in order to shorten the time when the dog is not eating while providing the dog with supportive care.
3. Apathy, exhaustion or weakness - manifested in indifference, poor reaction to normal stimuli (name calling, noises, smells, contact). If apathy persists over a period of time, this should not be ignored even if there is no other sign.
4. Diarrhea / vomiting - In this case too, these symptoms can be caused by a wide variety of medical conditions or conditions related to the digestive system or other digestive system.
If this is a diuretic or black diarrhea, this may indicate bleeding to the digestive system in its various parts. Vomiting can also suggest gastrointestinal bleeding, especially the upper gastrointestinal tract. In case of vomiting or diarrhea, contact your emergency vet.
5. Non-productive vomiting - Frequent and unsuccessful attempts to vomit may indicate gastric inversion (GDV). This situation is a life threatening situation that requires immediate contact with an emergency vet.
6. Fainting or fainting - a situation in which the dog is unable to stand on its own feet, in some cases the dog quickly regains its temper and in others it takes him some time to recover. Any case of breakdown or weakness is a good reason to contact an immediate emergency vet.
7. Twitching - Twitch is a general name for a varied appearance of nerve signs. In the language of the people, it is called epilepsy (although epilepsy is also a type of spasm, but not every spasm is epilepsy).
The spasm can be mild and can be expressed, for example, in facial movements ("bags") and can be more difficult to manifest in the collapse of the dog, including involuntary movements of the legs, incontinence (feces and urine). The spasm can last from seconds to long minutes, in these cases it usually takes time for the dog to recover and regain itself.
Spasms usually result from over-stimulation of the nervous system when the cause can be systemic or focused on the nervous system. There are life-threatening convulsions. In any case, contact an emergency vet.
This was an incidental 0.5cm nodule in a thyroid removed for multinodular goiter. The tumor stained with synaptophysin, chromogranin, and calcitonin. Thyrogloblulin was negative.
Minocycline is a tetracycline derivative antibiotic commonly prescribed for acne, rosacea, and other inflammatory skin disorders. Minocycline turns black when oxidized, leading to discoloration of the skin and nails. Pigmentation may also involve the bulbar conjunctiva, oral mucosa, teeth, bones, and thyroid gland. Pigmentation has been reported after long-term minocycline therapy with at least 100 mg/day.

And I survived it. I walked up the hill. And I walked back down the curvy hill. And that's an accomplishment.
For me anyway.
Before the fibro, I walked four miles a day, I did yoga and an ab-workout thing. I could walk circles around my kids and the spouse. Then, in 2005, I started to feel sluggish. I thought it was my thyroid acting up. (I have a thyroid condition). Tests showed it wasn't. I slowed from four miles to three a day. Then two. Then one. Then when I got to where I couldn't crank out even a half mile, I stopped walking for exercise. In the middle of all that, I stopped doing the yoga and the ab-workout.
Of course, the weight came on. I gained sixty pounds that first year. They tested me for everything. In that first year, the pain started. Joint pain, body aching pain. And so tired. So very tired.
A doctor increased my thyroid medicine and I started to feel better. I started to walk again- a short distance, a mile. March 3, 2006, I slipped on the ice on my back deck and tore up my knee (again). That set off a two and a half year saga to get a consultation letter from the doctor to see a non-VA surgeon. I went from crutches to a cane following that injury. Then I walked with two canes.
That was the VA's solution for me when both knees were bad. Give me two canes. I named them George and Gracie (the cane I had already, his name is Hank and he's made of wood, George and Gracie were "old-people canes", metal with the ergonomic handle).
For almost two years, I walked with two canes when I had to go further than the distance inside my own house. I looked like a fat, weird robot.
On March 18, 2009, three years after I hurt my knee, I got a knee replacement. I named the metal joint "Steve Austin" and the scar is named "Fronkensteen". That surgery kicked off a fibro flare-up that was too obvious to deny. But it took another year and three months to get a proper diagnosis. I was officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia on June 28, 2010. And now I take medicine to cope.
In that time, more weight came on. I look awful now. I photograph myself very carefully. I rarely take photos of the rest of my body, at least, not as a whole
I've been taking Vicodin for years now- for the pain. In July 2010, I started taking Cyclobenzaprine (a muscle relaxer) and it helped a lot. But after six months, the rheumatologist didn't think it was helping enough. Now I take Gabapentin. One week at one pill a day, then move up to two. After a week of two pills a day, I tried three (a week ago, in fact) and I felt like a drooling zombie. So I went back to two pills a day. .
This day, this walk... I took a pill in the midday again to see if it would zombie me out again. I did not. I feel a bit of a buzz, but not completely looped out of my head.
And... I walked today. On a walk. Uphill. And the only thing that really caused me pain was my feet. (on top of it all, I have foot problems too).
Its a start. Let's see if I can keep it up.
