Missed Concepts

  • Workup of thyroid nodule almost always ends with FNA, the one exception is a patient without suspicious US findings or cancer risk factors, a low TSH, and a hot nodule on 123-Iodine scan (toxic adenoma). For these patients go straight to treatment (Methimazole pretreatment to achieve euthyroid > RF ablation vs. surgery)
