Tiroid Piramidal Lob İnsidansı ve Tiroid Fonksiyonları İle İlişkisi

Öz

ÖZET

Giriş: Çalışmamızda ultrasonografi ile piramidal lob sıklığını ve piramidal lob boyutları ile tiroid fonksiyon testleri arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığını tespit etmeyi amaçladık.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Ekim 2015 ile ekim 2016 tarihleri arasında tiroid ultrasonografi için başvurmuş, erişkin yaş grubunda toplam 644 olgu çalışmamıza dahil edildi.

Bulgular: Olgularımızın %15.2’sinde (n=98) piramidal lob mevcuttu. Piramidal lob uzun boyutu ortalama 14.97±5.9 mm, kısa boyutu ortalama 3.99±5.1 mm idi. Piramidal lobu olan hastalar cinsiyete göre değerlendirildiğinde, kadın ve erkek cinsiyet arasında yaş, piramidal lob boyutları ve tiroid fonksiyonları açısından fark yoktu (p>0.05). Piramidal lob boyutları ile tiroid fonksiyon testleri arasında anlamlı bir ilişki yoktu.

Tartışma: Piramidal lob sıklığı %15.2 olarak tespit edildi ve her iki cinsiyette benzer oranda görüldü. Piramidal lob boyutları ile tiroid fonksiyonları arasında ilişki saptanmadı.

Incidence of Thyroid Pyramidal Lobe and Its Relationship with Thyroid Functions

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Aim:

In our study, we aimed to determine whether there is a relationship between thyroid function and presence and dimensions of the pyramidal lobe by ultrasound.

MaterialandMethods:

Between October 2015 and October 2016, a total of 644 patients in the adult age group who was underwent thyroid ultrasound were included in our study.

Results:

Pyramidal lob was present in 15.2% (n = 98) of our study group. The average length and width of the pyramidal lobe was 14.97 ± 5.9 mm and 3.99 ± 5.1 mm, respectively. When the patients with pyramidal lobe were evaluated according to gender, there was no difference between male and female sex in terms of age, pyramidal lobe sizes and thyroid functions(p>0.05). There was no significant relationship between pyramidal lobe dimensions and thyroid function tests.

 

Conclusion:

Pyramidal lobe incidence was found to be 15.2% and was similar in both sexes. There was no correlation between pyramidal lobe dimensions and thyroid function.

 

KeyWords: Anatomic variation. Pyramidal lobe. Thyroid function tests. Thyroid gland.
