Detailed explanation-1: -These thyroid follicles act as storage compartments filled with a substance called the colloid. This colloid is thyroglobulin, which is nothing but acidophilic secretory glycoprotein that is PAS-positive.
Detailed explanation-2: -A colloid cyst nodule is a common type of benign thyroid nodule that contains fluid. Nodules develop when thyroid tissue grows abnormally. With a colloid cyst nodule, the overgrowth can be extensive. Fortunately, colloid thyroid nodules don’t spread outside the thyroid.
Detailed explanation-3: -The diagnosis is often challenging and may take time until later in the disease process. The most common laboratory findings demonstrate an elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and low levels of free thyroxine (fT4), coupled with increased antithyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies.
