Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is a prototype of auto-immune thyroiditis described by Hakaru Hashimoto of Japan in the year 1912. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis more common in adolescent females than in males. It presents with varied clinical features with its clinic-radiological features overlapping with thyroid malignancy often with discordance with final histopathological findings. CASE REPORT 41-year-old female presented with a midline neck swelling for three years, which lately caused dyspnea for the last four months. Radiological examination [TIRADS IV] and clinical correlation suggested a diagnosis of thyroid malignancy. Histopathological diagnosis of the subtotal thyroidectomy specimen was Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, which was supported relevant immunological studies of elevated anti-TPO antibodies. CONCLUSION In the present case clinic-radiological diagnosis of the neck lesion being thyroid malignancy [TIRADS IV] was at variance with final histopathological diagnosis of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis supported by elevated anti-TPO antibodies, which highlighted the diagnosis of Hashimoto’s disease to be a bone of contention between clinical thyroid malignancy and histological thyroiditis.
