Question : Dear Sir/ Ma'am,
Kindly opine on HPE report attached.
Please confirm if it is benign or Malignant

Answered by Dr. T Chandrakant (19 hours later)

Brief Answer:
It is benign. Be assured.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, specific and report.
The report clearly mentions Hurthle Cell Adenoma.
Hurthle cell is the type that develops in a mass.
The cells do not show any transformation into cancer.
Adenoma itself means benign nature of the mass.
Hence this is not malignant.
Thyroid other than the adenoma is also normal.

Be assured.

I hope this answers your specific query.
With Regards.
Dr T Chandrakant.
General Surgeon.
