Out of 47 Neoplastic cases, 22 are Benign and 25 are Malignant.38 are Females and 9 are Males giving F: M ratio of 4.22: 1. The age range is 17 years to 80 years with mean age of 40.93 years and the relative peak age of incidence is seen in 21-40 years age group. Papillary carcinoma is 46.83% of all Neoplastic lesions where as Follicular adenoma is 38.3% of all Neoplasms. Conclusion- Benign and Malignant thyroid lesions are common in Females. Follicular adenoma is the commonest Benign neoplasm of thyroid and Papillary carcinoma is the commonest Malignancy of thyroid. Males with thyroid neoplasms present at a later age than females.
