Combined Endonasal-Transcervical Approach to a Metastatic Parapharyngeal Space Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
PURPOSE Although papillary thyroid carcinoma metastases to the parapharyngeal space are rare, the high amount of fat tissue allows tumors to grow clinically undetectable until they invade most of the parapharyngeal space. We describe for the first time a combined endonasal and transcervical approach for a parapharyngeal metastasis from a papillary thyroid carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS A ...
متن کاملCorrection: A thyroid tumor extending to the parapharyngeal space
BACKGROUND The metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma to the parapharyngeal space is rare and discussed in the English literature before. Encountering a parapharyngeal mass with cystic appearance on imaging, one should rule out thyroid malignancy as differential diagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION The case presented here is a 22-year-old woman who was referred to our clinic with complaints of pai...
متن کاملThyroid carcinoma metastatic to the globe.
We report a case of thyroid carcinoma metastatic to the globe. In our survey we found thyroid carcinomas to metastasise to the eye rarely. In addition, we found metastases from the thyroid to be more common to the orbit than to the globe--a reverse of the pattern noted with tumours in general.
متن کاملUndifferentiated metastatic carcinoma and myoepithelioma: two rare causes of hypervascular masses of the parapharyngeal space.
We report 2 unusual cases of hypervascular masses in the parapharyngeal space. The first case involved a poorly differentiated metastatic carcinoma of oropharyngeal origin that mimicked a carotid body tumor. The second case involved a highly vascular myoepithelioma located in the parapharyngeal space.
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...
