A member asked:
I have a thyroid nodule being watched last year it was cystic and this year it is now solid. why would a cystic thyroid nodule turn solid into a solid thyroid nodule?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Assuming the cystic nodule turns into a solid nodule, the indication for biopsy will depend on the characteristics of this solid nodule. You should discuss with the endocrinologist.
