Yo *-*, sorry for late sheet,read carefully what is written under the pictures and study the theory first and Histology lab to understand all the concepts. This file is for 2 records. LETS GO!!!

C-cells have different origin from follicular cells, they are endocrine in origin and they secrete calcitonin. since its hard to see them we use immunohistochemical stain with AB to Calcitonin to see them or we can use other neuroendocrine markers

Goiter
me

Sticky Note
We are afraid of goiter because it can block airway passage or esophagous
me

When we have Toxic multi-nodular goiter we call it Plummer syndrome (TSH independent nodule)

This looks like papilla but they are not true papilla(psuedopapilli) \\\ other causes of papilla:-papillary carcinoma(fibrovascular in papilla-->true papilla) -multinodular goiter(because of hyperplacisity) (psuedopapilli)

Tumor, looks like normal but more uniform \\\this is adenoma because didnt invade the capsule To concider it invasive carcinoma it should invade half of the capsule

We dont care about the capsule because it may be or not, also we dont care about it because we only have papillary carcinoma(no papillary adenoma) if we have capsule we say capsulated papillary carcinoma(better prognosis)

If we dont see papilla or we cant differentiate if its papillary carcinoma\multinodular goiter\graves dz we look for nuclear features:(these are for papillary cacinoma) -orphan annie nuclei -pseudo-fusion (invagination of nuclear membrane) -nuclear grooves -overloaded cells

this is anaplastic carcinoma which means doesnt have a deffenitive shape,it may develop from long standing follicular or papillary carcinoma,it its very invasive to surrounding tissue . mortality usually comes from invasion complication rather than tumor itself

abnormal in size pituatry, this can b adenoma or carcinoma,because of endocrine atypia we cant defferentiate so we search for invasion and mets

Sticky Note
this is adenoma not normal cells, because there is mono-morphism & loss of reticulin . even we find high mitotic index it doesnt mean malignancy and it it may cause destruction to nearby structures but that is not invasion
me

it have same symptoms as pituatary adenoma

benign tumors with mass effect so it may cause bi-temporal heminopia because it compresses optic chiasm

Parathyroid gland is nueroendocrine in origin, and composed of chief cells which produce Parathyroid hormone and oxyphil cells
me
Sticky Note
Normally we have 4 parathyroid glands ,but we may have less or more .if more we call them accessory or extra. Also, we can find parathyroid glands not in thyroid,usually in mediastenum and find them through nuclear radiological scan
me
Sticky Note
weight of normal parathyroid glands: 0.1-0.2 gram so the sum of 4 normal glands is less than 1 gram
me
Sticky Note
Patient came with hypercalcemia and we need to diagnose if he have PT hyperplasia or adenoma or carcinoma. if hyperplasia is more than one gland its just hyperplasia\\if only one it may be adenoma or carccinoma(if invasive and have mets)
