Abstract

Thyroid nodules are the most common endocrine system disorders and have increased in recent years by around 20-68%. Most occur in women compared to men, especially in old age. To diagnose a thyroid gland lump for sure by performing a histopathological examination, this examination can also determine whether the thyroid nodule is malignant or not. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of thyroid nodule patients at the Cut Meutia General Hospital, North Aceh based on age, gender, and histopathological features in 2021-2023. This study is an observational descriptive study, with a cross-sectional method, by collecting patient medical record data in January 2021 - December 2023 which was taken by total sampling according to the criteria determined in this study and using the SPSS program and presented in the form of tables and narratives.
