Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma of a Diffuse Sclerosing Variant: Ultrasonographic Monitoring from a Normal Thyroid Gland to Mass Formation
A diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma is uncommon and has a tendency for rapid growth and a higher incidence of cervical lymph node metastases. We experienced a case of a diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma in a 48-year-old man. This case showed benign features on initial ultrasonography and positron emission tomography (PET) scan. A new nodule was de...

BACKGROUND The diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (DSV-PTC) is an uncommon tumor making up about 2% of all papillary thyroid carcinomas. Previous studies have not comprehensively evaluated these tumors in a large series of patients.

to occur. Bile also provides a good medium for bacterial growth and so infective sequelae often occur in the setting of a cholethorax. Biliary pleural fistulas and the formation of bilious pleural effusions are known complications of hepatic trauma 1,2 , parasitic liver disease 3 and development of a subphrenic abscess in the setting of biliary obstruction. Iatrogenic causes include biliary ste...
متن کاملDiffuse Sclerosing Variant of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma with Concomitant Thyrotoxicosis: A Case Report and Literature Review
Diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (DSVPC) is a rare variant of conventional papillary thyroid carcinoma which was first reported in 1985. It appears to be more aggressive than conventional type of papillary thyroid carcinoma. We present a case in a 14-year-old girl who initially presented with thyrotoxicosis and was later diagnosed with DSVPC on subsequent ultrasound and...

The diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (DSV-PTC) is a relatively rare tumor. We herein report the case of young woman with DSV-PTC who developed cervical lymph node recurrence 7 years after the initial surgery. A 15-year-old female patient with no medical or family history of thyroid tumors developed a thyroid neoplasm in the right lobe. Right thyroidectomy and regional l...
