Primary Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Thyroid Gland
Introduction: Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the thyroid gland is one of the rarest types of all reported thyroid malignancies worldwide. It is very aggressive in nature and carries a poor prognosis. The surgical resection with adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy is the most recommended treatment despite its poor reported outcome. Case Report: A 74-year-old woman presented wit...
متن کاملUltrastructure of an anaplastic giant cell tumor of the thyroid.
A case of anaplastic, multinucleated giant cell tumor of the thyroid was studied by light and electron microscopy. The coexistence of anaplastic sarcomatous tumor and well differentiated follicular carcinoma, and the presence of desmosomes among the mononuclear cells suggested that this tumor originates in thyroid follicular cells. The multinucleated giant cells, which characterize this thyroid...
متن کاملPrimary thyroid spindle cell tumors: spindle cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma?
Primary thyroid spindle cell tumors or spindle cell component in the thyroid tumors are very rare. The spindle tumor cells were positive for thyroid papillary carcinoma markers. So these tumors were diagnosed as spindle cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). To further delineate clinico-pathological features of primary thyroid spindle cell tumors and discuss differential diagnosis, ...
متن کاملPredictors of Thyroid Gland Invasion in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Introduction: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can invade the thyroid gland leading to unnecessary thyroidectomies with subsequent hypothyroidism and hyperparathyroidism. Thus, clinicopathological variables should be defined in order to predict thyroid gland invasion preoperatively. Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 1,465 patients with laryngeal SCC referr...
متن کاملSpindle cell melanocytic tumors
pseudoinclusions are sometimes evident and mild nuclear pleomorphism is typical. Mitoses are either absent or extremely infrequent. By definition dendritic cells are said not to be seen in this lesion. The growth pattern often presents a plexiform appearance, fascicles of nevus cells following the dermal appendages and neurovascular bundles. Perineural or endoneural extension is a very common f...
