A case of patient with suspicious, rapidly growing thyroid tumor, with a short review of the thyroid nodular disease guidelines

Thyroid nodules, also known as goitre, is the most common thyroid disease. Its prevalence depends on age, iodine supply, and availability of ultrasonography examination. The manuscript presents a case of a patient with fast-growing thyroid nodule, with ultrasonographic and cytological features suggesting high probability of malignancy, which finally turned out to be a benign one. In addition to the presented case, the EU-TIRADS guidelines and indications for hemithyroidectomy are briefly discussed.
