Complications
By Mayo Clinic staffPossible complications of Hurthle cell cancer and other thyroid tumors include:
- Difficulty swallowing and breathing. This can occur if the tumor grows and presses on the esophagus.
- Spread of the cancer. If Hurthle cell cancer isn't treated appropriately, or if treatment begins late, the cancer can spread (metastasize) to other tissues and organs, making therapy more difficult and diminishing the chances of recovery.
