Overview

The histological analysis in de Quervain's thyroiditis may show the destruction of the follicular epithelium, loss of the follicular integrity, and infiltration of inflammatory cells. Fine needle aspiration cytology helps to differentiate between the benign and malignant nodules.

Other Diagnostic Studies

Microscopic Pathology

Microscopic findings suggesting de Quervain's thyroiditis are as followings:[1]

Fine needle aspiration cytology

Fine needle aspiration is usually done under ultrasound guidance and the sample is sent for cytology. It helps to differentiate benign thyroid nodules from the malignant lesions.[2][3]
