Dynamic Predictors for Malignancy Risk of Follicular Thyroid Neoplasms: A Real‐World, 10‐Year Cohort Study

Key Points

This research aims to identify predictors of malignancy risk in follicular thyroid neoplasms over a 10-year period.
Analyzed a cohort of patients with follicular thyroid neoplasms over 10 years.
Monitored changes in tumor margins and average TSH levels.
Assessed tumor growth rates and their stability.
Changes to irregular or lobulated tumor margins indicated a higher malignancy risk.
Lower average TSH levels were associated with increased malignancy risk.
Tumor growth rate changes played a minor role in predicting malignancy.

Abstract

Changes in tumor margins (to irregular or lobulated) and lower average TSH levels were key predictors of a higher malignancy risk, while the rate or instability of tumor growth might play a minor role.
