Papillary 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...
متن کاملRolling out radioguided occult lesion localisation for breast tumours
There is a disconnection between the high-resolution displays in the medical imaging department and what the clinician can detect at the bedside. One example is the flood of impalpable tumours which can account for more than half of those detected by breast cancer screening programs: how to guide the surgeon to where the lesion is? One solution is the subject of the article by Landman et al. in...
متن کاملRadioguided breast surgery for occult lesion localization – correlation between two methods
BACKGROUND The detection of sub-clinical breast lesions has increased with screening mammography. Biopsy techniques can offer precision and agility in its execution, as well as patient comfort. This trial compares radioguided occult lesion localization (ROLL) and wire-guided localization (WL) of breast lesions. We investigate if a procedure at the ambulatorial level (ROLL) could lead to a bette...
متن کاملSquamous Cell Differentiation in Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: Metaplastic
Squamous cell differentiation (SCD) may occur in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) only at metastatic sites. We have studied cytokeratin CK5/6 and P63 along with TTF1 (thyroid transcription factor 1) and B-Raf (V-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1) immunohistochemical expression in neck lymph node metastases of thyroid PTC showing SCD. The patient (21-years) presented wit...
