case report
case report
Papillary carcinoma of the thyroid constitutes 80% of thyroid malignancies
in adults. Females are affected at least twice as often as males. It
metastasizes to distant sites very rarely, but to the cervical nodes quite often.
Occasionally metastatic lymph node enlargement is the sole presenting
feature. t.3.6.7 The tumor is slow growing and sometimes the patient has good
survival even in spite of distant metastases. The following case is a coincidence
of two separate rare diseases, one is metastasis of the thyroid papillary
carcinoma to the breast and the second one is coincidence of this unheard
metastasis with carcinoma of the breast itself. By my knowledge, this is the
first case of its kind being reported.
