We report the case of a 70-year-old man with follicular carcinoma of the thyroid who complained of worsening dyspnea and was successfully treated by external radiation therapy. The total dose given was 61 Gy in 28 fractions. This case suggests that external radiation therapy is effective for the management of differentiated thyroid cancer with critical stenosis of the trachea that is inoperable and difficult to treat with radioiodine.
我们报告了一例70岁的甲状腺滤泡癌男性患者，该患者主诉呼吸困难加重，并通过外照射放疗成功治愈。总剂量为61戈瑞，分28次给予。该病例表明，对于伴有气管严重狭窄、无法手术且难以用放射性碘治疗的分化型甲状腺癌，外照射放疗是有效的。
