background: thyroid carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the endocrine system. papillary thyroid carcinoma (ptc) is the most common type of thyroid cancer, accounting for 70–90% of well-differentiated thyroid malignancies. thyroid papillary microcarcinoma is a subtype of papillary carcinoma that included tumors with less than 10mm diameter. as a result of diagnostic methods improvement, p...

concomitant papillary thyroid cancer and parathyroid adenoma is rare. we report a 55 years old female with papillary cancer admitted for surgery. preoperative laboratory findings revealed hypercalcemia and then primary hyperparathyroidism. thyroidectomy, neck dissection and excision of parathyroid adenoma were performed. histological examination revealed parathyroid adenoma. serum calcium retur...

Background & objectives: Prognosis of thyroid papillary cancer is quite well long lasting, so a 10- year survival is observed in more than 90% cases. In this study, rate of incidence of thyroid papillary cancer in contralateral lobe was assessed among patients who had a surgical thyroidectomy re-operation. Materials & Methods: In this retrospective study, we examined 82 patients diagnosed with...

Background: Persistent thyroglossal duct leads to a fibrous cyst formation named thyroglossal cyst which is the most common form of congenital cyst and usually located in the midline neck below the hyoid bone. Rarely the thyroglossal cyst is associated with thyroid cancer. Although the Sistrunk procedure is often considered adequate, currently there is no clear consensus on the optimal manageme...

INTRODUCTION Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy; the most common type of thyroid cancer is papillary thyroid cancer which accounts for approximately 90% of all thyroid cancers. Previously defined prognostic factors of papillary thyroid cancer include age, gender, tumor size, extrathyroidal extension, and distant metastasis. Cervical lymph node metastases are very common in p...
