Overview

Classification

  • Thyroid adenomas are classified into 2 subtype: follicular adenoma and others.
  • Almost all thyroid adenomas are follicular adenomas.[1] Others include papillary adenoma which is very rare.[2]
  • Follicular adenomas can be described as "cold", "warm" or "hot" depending on their level of function.[3]
  • Histopathologically, follicular adenomas can be classified according to their cellular architecture and relative amounts of cellularity and colloid into the following types depicted in the flowchart.
