Abstract Background In cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), lymph nodes are a typical site metastasis. Extrathyroidal tissue involvement in differentiated causes the disease to progress and affects patients’ treatment options. Papillary (PTC) is common type (DTC), other follicular (FTC). Ectopic sites, such as intrathyroidal node invasion classical malignancy, extremely uncommon. It can ...

HYPOTHESIS The prognosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma has been stratified into low- and high-risk groups. Patients in the high-risk group can be substratified on the basis of increasing age, with implications for prognosis and treatment. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Tertiary care center. PATIENTS A total of 727 patients with papillary thyroid cancer treated at Lahey Clinic, Burli...

Renal cell carcinoma is a rare cancer in Thailand. Most of the patients present in advanced metastatic stage with identifiable renal mass. In this case report, we presents a case of male patient who manifested with supraclavicular lymph node enlargement and CT scan of chest and abdomen showed multiple sites lymph node metastasis but there was no primary mass detected anywhere. The pathology of ...

BACKGROUND Identification of poor prognostic factors in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients is important for the patients' care and follow-up. We can sometimes see small tumor clusters without desmoplasia and no evidence of lymphatic emboli around the main tumor mass of PTC. We termed this form of tumor clustering, 'tumor sprouting,' and determined whether these tumors correlate with lym...

Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is a subset of papillary thyroid carcinoma, with tumors measuring ≤1.0 cm in maximum diameter. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common histopathological subtype of the various esophageal malignancies. The present study reports a rare synchronous presentation of PTMC and asymptomatic ESCC manifesting as lateral cervical lymph node enla...

Purpose: Thyroid carcinoma is the most common that originated from endocrine tissue in pediatric patients. Pediatric thyroid carcinomas are more prone to reveal lymph node or lung metastasis and recurrence. In this study, clinical, pathological genetic features may be related with resistant differentiated patients were investigated.

A 39-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for invasive cervical cancer. On initial physical examination, inguinal lymph nodes, but not supraclavicular lymph nodes, were palpable. Positron emission tomography revealed multiple bone metastasis with hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the abdominal and pelvic cavity, left supraclavicular fossa, and a mild hypermetabolic nodular lesion in the left...

An elective or a prophylactic lymph node dissection is the removal of the lymph nodes that are normal on physical examination and on radiographic imaging. This type of dissection is not based on the visible disease in the targeted nodal basins, but on the potential of a radiographically occult tumour which can exist. The pathologic results of an elective lymph node dissection may help in predic...
