Overview

Depending on the extent of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis of thyroid adenoma may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as excellent. Common complications of thyroid adenoma include hyperthyroidism, thyrotoxicosis, hemorrhage, thyroid cyst, and superior vena cava obstruction.

Natural History

  • Thyroid adenoma is usually a slow growing tumor which has limited growth and indolent behavior.[1]

Complications

  • Common complications of thyroid adenoma include:[2]
