Abstract:
A 32-year-old patient presented to our department with a large cystic lesion in the right lateral neck (diameter 6 cm). After complete resection, the histopathological examination revealed a lymph node metastasis of a papillary thyroid carcinoma. We performed total thyroidectomy and bilateral selective neck dissection. There was a papillary microcarcinoma in the right lobe of the thyroid. The postoperative course was uneventful. Therapy with radioiodine was conducted. At 30 months after surgery the patient is free of disease.
