Overview

Case report describes a 50-year-old male with metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma and vascular invasion, suggesting urgent surgical intervention.

Key Points

  • A 50-year-old male presented with a growing neck mass, and ultrasound confirmed metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma causing hoarseness.
  • Fine needle aspiration biopsy validated the diagnosis, revealing complete invasion of the vagus nerve and internal jugular vein.
  • Preoperative evaluation is crucial to assess the invasion of major neck vessels, indicating potential vascular resection or reconstruction.
  • Surgery is essential for differentiated thyroid cancer, and radioactive iodine treatment should be followed for patients with metastasis.
