Hashimoto thyroiditis
Surgery / Radiation / Drug-induced
Infiltration by tumour
Secondary (hypothal/pituitary dysfunction)
Graves disease
• Epidemiology
– What type of people get Graves disease?
Graves disease
• Epidemiology
– Women, 20-40 yrs, (M:F = 1:7)
Graves disease
• Epidemiology
– Women, 20-40 yrs, (M:F = 1:7)
• Pathogenesis
Graves disease
• Epidemiology
– Women, 20-40 yrs, (M:F = 1:7)
• Pathogenesis
– Autoimmune disorder
– Activation of thyroid by thyroid autoantibodies
• Anti-TSH R, anti-thyroglobulin, anti-T3/T4
– Associated with certain HLA types
– Associated with other AI disorders
• Hashimoto thyroiditis, pernicious anaemia, rheumatoid arthritis
Graves disease
• Gross findings
– Mild symmetrical thyroid enlargement
– Eyes: exophthalmos, lid retraction, lid lag
– Skin: pretibial myxedema
Graves disease
• Microscopic findings
Graves disease
Normal thyroid
Graves disease
• Microscopic findings
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Epidemiology
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Epidemiology
– Women, 45-65 yrs, (M:F = 1:10 to 20)
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Epidemiology
– Women, 45-65 yrs, (M:F = 1:10 to 20)
• Pathogenesis
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Epidemiology
– Women, 45-65 yrs, (M:F = 1:10 to 20)
• Pathogenesis
– Autoimmune disorder
– Destruction of thyroid by thyroid autoantibodies
• Anti-TSH R, anti-thyroglobulin
– Associated with certain HLA types
– Associated with other AI disorders
• SLE, pernicious anaemia, rh. Arthritis, Sjogrens, IDDM, Graves
– May cause transient hyperthyroidism in early stages
– Gradual destruction and fibrosis  hypothyroidism
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Gross findings
– Enlarged pale thyroid initially
– Atrophic thyroid eventually
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Microscopic findings
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
• Microscopic findings
Thyroiditis
• Painful
– Infectious
• Adjacent sinusitis, mycobacteria, fungi
– Subacute (granulomatous)
• Post viral
• Painless
– Hashimoto’s
– Fibrous
• Fibrosis, atrophy, hypothyroidism
Goitre
• What is it?
Goitre
• What is it?
– Enlarged thyroid
– Due to impaired thyroid hormone synthesis
Goitre
• What is it?
– Enlarged thyroid
– Due to impaired thyroid hormone synthesis
• Causes
Goitre
• What is it?
– Enlarged thyroid
– Due to impaired thyroid hormone synthesis
• Causes
– Iodine deficiency
– Goitrogens
– Inherited disorders
Goitre
• Pathogenesis
– Hyperplasia of follicular epithelium
– Increased thyroid hormone release (decreased colloid)
– Involution of follicles when enough thyroid hormone
released
– Accumulation of colloid
• Two forms:
– Diffuse
– Multinodular
Goitre
• Gross findings
– Diffuse: Diffuse enlargement without nodules
– Multinodular:
Goitre
• Microscopic findings
– Diffuse (initial hyperplastic stage):
• Hyperplastic and hypertrophied follicles
• Decreased colloid
– Diffuse (involution stage)
• Dilated follicles, atrophic epithelium
• Abundant colloid
Goitre
• Microscopic findings
– Multinodular goitre:
– Recurrent episodes of stimulation and involution
• Hyperplastic and hypertrophied follicles with decreased colloid
• Dilated follicles with atrophic epithelium and abundant colloid
• Haemorrhage, fibrosis, calcification, cyst formation
Thyroid neoplasms
• Risk factors

Multinodular goitre
• Types
– Follicular adenoma
– Carcinoma

Follicular adenoma
• Morphology:
Follicular carcinoma
• Morphology:
– Same as follicular adenoma!
BUT
– Vascular / capsular invasion
– Haematogenous mets

Causes of hyperparathyroidism
Parathyroid hyperplasia
Parathyroid adenoma
Hyperadrenalism
• Presentation
– Cushing’s syndrome
– Conn’s syndrome
• Causes
– Primary
• Hyperplasia, adenoma, carcinoma
– Secondary
• Hypothalamic/pituitary disorders
• Ectopic ACTH secretion
• Activation of renin-angiotensin system
