I had an ultrasound of my neck. My report says the left lobe is enlarged with a cystic lesion of size 20 x 23 mm having separation and echogenic content. The impression is a colloid cyst in the left lobe with an enlarged left thyroid lobe. What does this mean?

Colloid cysts are benign. If no compressive symptoms or hormonal changes, only annual USG follow up is needed.
