Area of Science:

Endocrinology
Vascular Surgery
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Thyroid hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors.
Presentation can mimic more common thyroid pathologies, posing diagnostic challenges.
Symptomatic presentation may include neck mass, tracheal deviation, and vocal cord paralysis.

Observation:

A 56-year-old male presented with a neck mass causing tracheal deviation and unilateral vocal cord paralysis.
Standard thyroid scans provided inconclusive results.
Preoperative diagnosis was achieved using 99m-technetium angiogram and arteriography.

Findings:

The 99m-technetium angiogram revealed the lesion's vascular nature.
Arteriography identified bilateral inferior thyroid arteries as the primary blood supply.

Pathologic examination confirmed a vascular tumor involving thyroid parenchyma and a microfollicular adenoma.

Implications:

This case underscores the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosing atypical thyroid lesions.
Multimodality diagnostic approaches are essential for accurate preoperative assessment.
Surgical management via standard cervical incision is feasible for thyroid hemangiomas.
