A Case of Thyroid Hemiagenesis Associated With Graves’ Disease and Follicular Neoplasm
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Thyroid hemiagenesis is a rare congenital anomaly in which the thyroid lobe fails to develop, and the occurrence of thyroid hemiagenesis with other thyroid diseases is possible. Here, we report a case of thyroid hemiagenesis with Graves’ disease and follicular neoplasm. Our patient, an 81-year-old female, was admitted with general weakness and weight loss over the previous month. Laboratory testing showed elevated free T4, suppressed TSH, and elevated TSH receptor antibody levels. A 99mTc thyroid scan showed absent uptake in the left lobe and a cold nodule on the isthmus of the thyroid gland. Ultrasound imaging showed an oval-shaped thyroid nodule on the isthmus and diffuse enlargement and hypervascularity of the right lobe. We performed ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration, and cytologic analysis showed evidence of a Hurthle cell follicular neoplasm. To date, this is the first reported case of thyroid hemiagenesis associated with Graves’ disease and Hurthle cell follicular neoplasm.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
