Atrophic heterogeneous thyroid refers to a condition where the thyroid gland exhibits uneven or variable tissue structure and a reduction in overall size or function. This can be associated with autoimmune conditions, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis, leading to inflammation and gradual destruction of thyroid tissue. The "heterogeneous" aspect indicates that the thyroid may show mixed areas of different echogenicity on imaging studies, reflecting changes in the thyroid's cellular composition. This condition can result in hypothyroidism and may require monitoring and management by a healthcare professional.
