It appears to be more aggressive than conventional type of papillary thyroid carcinoma. We present a case in a 14-year-old girl who initially presented with thyrotoxicosis and was later diagnosed with DSVPC on subsequent ultrasound and fine need leaspiration when cervicallymph node was evident on clinical examination. Concomitant thyrotoxicosis in thyroid carcinoma is uncommon. The prevalence, clinical presentation, characteristic radiological and histological features, management and prognosis of DSVPC are discussed with literature review. We also hope to illustrate through this case that ultrasound as a non-invasive imaging modality is an invaluable tool for workup in functional thyroid problems and concomitant malignancy may not be that uncommon, so that we could provide prompt treatment to our patients.展开更多

Primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) is a lymphomatous process which develops in the thyroid without involvement of primary lymphoid organs or distant metastases at diagnosis.2 It is a rare malignancy that accounts for 1%-5% of all thyroid malignancies and less than 2% of all extranodal lymphomas. The incidence of PTL is one or two cases per million.2' 3 It occurs frequently in elder woman, with a peak incidence in the sixth decade of life.展开更多
