Area of Science:

Pediatric oncology
Genetic predisposition syndromes
Diagnostic imaging

Background:

A 7-year-old boy with a history of pleuropulmonary blastoma and a germline DICER1 mutation was under surveillance.
Routine screening included renal ultrasound, chest radiography, and ocular examinations, all normal.
Age-directed screening guidelines prompted a thyroid ultrasound.

Observation:

The patient had no clinical signs or symptoms of thyroid dysfunction.
Physical examination revealed no thyromegaly or palpable thyroid nodules.
Thyroid ultrasound showed a stable left lobe finding over 12 months.

Findings:

The Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) classification was applied to the stable thyroid finding.
Multidisciplinary review led to a short-term follow-up with limited unenhanced MRI.
A diagnosis was established based on the follow-up imaging results.

Implications:

This case underscores the utility of standardized imaging classification systems like TI-RADS in pediatric surveillance.
Early diagnosis through vigilant monitoring is crucial for managing patients with genetic predisposition syndromes.
Multidisciplinary collaboration enhances diagnostic accuracy and patient management in complex cases.
