We report the case of a 34 year old man, who presented with advanced medullary carcinoma of the thyroid gland. His initial presentation, with dysphagia, is unusual in this condition. Surgery is the treatment of choice, radiotherapy and chemotherapy being relatively ineffective. Our patient underwent pharyngo-laryngo-oesophagectomy which is rarely performed in these cases, as such extensive disease is not often amenable to surgery.
我们报告了一例34岁男性患者，其患有晚期甲状腺髓样癌。他最初表现为吞咽困难，在这种疾病中较为少见。手术是首选治疗方法，放疗和化疗相对无效。我们的患者接受了下咽-喉-食管切除术，这种手术在这些病例中很少进行，因为如此广泛的疾病通常不适合手术治疗。
