Detailed histopathological study correlated with age, and sex was done Non-neoplastic thyroid lesions were more common than neoplastic ones. Colloid goiter was the commonest non-neoplastic lesion. Follicular adenoma was the most common benign neoplasm while papillary carcinoma was the commonest malignant tumor of all thyroid cancer.
