摘要
Palpation of a thyroid nodule should initiate a workup to exclude the rare but dangerous possibility of malignancy or autonomous function. Clinical evaluation will at times provide clues to malignancy, but the diagnostic cornerstone is fine-needle aspiration biopsy, Treatment may include observation, surgery, levothyroxine, or radioactive iodine.
