A member asked:
Can a complex hetrogenous thyroid nodule grow 2cm in 2 months if benign? thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both the heterogeneous pattern and the very rapid growth are highly suspicious of malignancy. Consultation should be obtained from a thyroid surgeon & thyroidologist or endocrinologist in such a case.
