dc.description.abstractObjective: The most frequently observed endocrine cancer is thyroid malignity. Itconstitutes only one percent of all malignities. The aim of this study is to investigate theincidence of thyroid cancer in cases with nodular goiter who undrewent thyroidectomyperformed by a single surgeon in Bitlis province (Turkey), an endemic goiter region.Materials and Methods: Pathology reports with surgery indication of 940 patients, whounderwent thyroidectomy administered by the same surgeon for nodular goiter at BitlisState Hospital between September 2008 and March 2015, were studied retrospectively.Postoperative histopathologic examinations were evaluated.Results: Female and male counts of our 940 patients were 827 (88%) and 113 (12%),respectively. The proportion of female to male patients was 7,3/1. 30 of 940 patients(3,2%) underwent one part total and the other part near total thyroidectomy and 910patients (96,8%) underwent total thyroidectomy. Histopathological examination showedthat 825 (87,7%) cases had nodular hyperplasia, 46 (4,9%) cases had lymphocyticthyroiditis, and 69 (7,3%) cases had thyroid tumors. 69 tumors in 18 (26%) cases werebenign; 51 (74%) cases were malign. In terms of cancer type, 45 (4,7%) cases had papillarycarcinoma, 5 (0,5%) cases had follicular carcinoma, and 1 (0,1%) case had medullarycarcinoma.Conclusion: In some cases in endemic goiter regions, received exogenous iodine canaffect cytological results and cause changes in thyroid tissue morphology. The observedincidence of thyroid cancer was 5,4% in the cases who underwent thyroidectomy due tonodular goiter in Bitlis province; and papillary thyroid carcinoma was the most observedcancer type.
