In the study to evaluate the association of nodule size upon cancer risk in a retrospective cohort analysis at an academic hospital with 4955 consecutive patients evaluated between 1995 and 2009, found that Increasing thyroid nodule size impacts cancer risk in a nonlinear fashion. A threshold is detected at 2.0 cm, beyond which cancer risk is unchanged. However, the risk of follicular carcinomas and other rare thyroid malignancies increases as nodules enlarge(60).
