In the thyroid gland, oxyphil cells are known as Hurthle cells and Askanazy cells. A subtype of follicular adenoma in the THYROID GLAND. The Hurthle cell tumor is composed predominantly (at least 75%) or entirely of oxyphil cells. Hurthle cell neoplasms can be divided into benign and malignant categories.
