Popis: | Cerebral metastases from papillary carcinoma of the thyroid are a very uncommon condition. These metastases almost always involve concomitant lung or bone metastases which may be the first metastatic sites. In a 59-year-old woman found metastases of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) in the frontal sinus, scapula, multiple bones of the skeleton and lungs. Evaluation confirmed that it is multiple metastases from PTC. This is a very rare presentation with such a large size of metastasis. We present this rare clinical case of massive distal lesions in PTC. |
