The first description of the microscopic anatomy of the thyroid gland was given by Lalouette (1750) who described it as being composed of inter-communicating vesicles. However from time to time controversies arose over different aspects of thyroid histology. Jones (1852) and more recently other workers (Bargmann, 1939; Maximow and Bloom, 1957; etc.) described the thyroid gland as being covered with a connective tissue capsule from which septa penetrated the gland and divided it into well-defined lobules. Bichat (1823) and others (Wegelin, 1926, etc.) failed to observe the limits of the lobules distinctly.
