Pediatric hyalinizing trabecular adenoma of thyroid: A rare presentation
Ruchi Sinha
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, India
H
yalinising trabecular tumor (HTT) is an unusual and controversial neoplasm of the thyroid gland. The WHO classification
of endocrine tumors describes it as a rare neoplasm of follicular cell origin with trabecular pattern of growth and marked
intratrabecular hyalinization. It is mostly encountered in middle aged women. Pediatric cases are extremely rare. A 14 year
male presented with swelling of the right lobe and isthmus of the thyroid. Partial thyroidectomy was performed. Grossly, an
encapsulated well circumscribed nodule measuring 4 cms in diameter was seen in the right lobe. Microscopy showed features of
hyalinizing trabecular adenoma (HTA). The histomorphological features of this entity overlap with papillary thyroid carcinoma,
medullary thyroid carcinoma and paraganglioma to varying extent. Recognition of HTA in children can facilitate appropriate
management.
