Thyroid disorders are among the most common endocrine disorders worldwide. Different diagnostic modalities are used for evaluation and diagnosis of thyroid swellings. Final and specific diagnosis requires histopathological examination of lesions which is considered as gold standard. To study the frequency of different patterns of thyroid diseases in patients presenting to a tertiary care center. The present study is a prospective study conducted in the Department of Pathology, Raichur Institute of Medical Sciences, Raichur between July 2019 to June 2022. A total of 80 samples were included in the study. Our study revealed female preponderance of thyroid with predominant age group being 31‐40 years. The most common non neoplastic and neo plastic thyroid disorder on histopathological examination at our center was noted to be Multinodular goiter(48.7%) and Follicular adenoma(10.0%). In our setting we have found out that the preponderance of Non‐neoplastic lesion is much higher in comparison with Neoplastic lesion. Multinodular goiter was found to be the most common thyroid lesion in this study.
