Parotid metastasis as the first presentation of papillary thyroid carcinoma
Parotid metastasis originated from papillary thyroid carcinoma is extremely rare, especially as the first presentation of the disease. We present a 70-year-old man with a history of painless swelling in the right side of the neck. He was evaluated for parotid tumor and histopathologic examination revealed a poorly differentiated carcinoma in the parotid gland with suspicion of thyroid origin. T...
متن کاملPapillary thyroid microcarcinoma presenting as lymph node metastasis--a diagnostic challenge: case report and systematic review of literature.
Papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMCs) have an excellent prognosis, although a few may metastasize to cervical lymph nodes. However, an infiltrated palpable neck node without evidence of thyroid disease at presentation is uncommon. We report a patient with PTMC presenting as a solitary lymph node metastasis without evidence of primary thyroid tumor in thyroid imaging and with inconclusive ly...

متن کامل[Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma diagnosed based on cyst-like mediastinal metastasis].
Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PMC) is defined as a papillary carcinoma 1 cm or less in size. PMC is a variant of papillary carcinoma, the most common thyroid cancer, which has a very good prognosis and in which distant metastases and death (0.4--1% per year) are exceptional.1 We report a patient who was diagnosed with metastasis of a papillary microcarcinoma as the result of an evaluation o...
متن کاملPapillary Thyroid Carcinoma Presenting As a Cystic Neck Lesion: Case Series
Introduction: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) constitutes 75–85% of all thyroid cancers. PTC usually presents as a subtle, commonly slow-growing, painless thyroid mass or a solitary nodule in the neck. This presentation of a cystic neck lump, without the presence of a thyroid nodule, may imitate the course of a benign disease, thus delaying diagnosis and proper treatment. Case Report: Thr...
