Abstract:
A case with squamous carcinoma of the thyroid is reported. The tumor appeared as a nodule of two cm in the right lobe. The patients was treated only with total thyroidectomy and 30 months after surgery, he remains free of disease. The histologic findings agree with the etiologic theory of a malignant transformation of metaplasic cells in these neoplasms. We think that total thyroidectomy may be curative in localized cases.
