Metastases to the thyroid gland represent a rare event. Malignancies that most frequently metastasize to the thyroid vary between clinical and autopsy studies and by geographic area. In Western countries, renal carcinoma has been recorded as a frequent source of thyroid metastases. We report the case of a 66-year-old man with a thyroid metastasis from clear cell renal carcinoma and discuss its clinical, pathological and imaging features.
甲状腺转移瘤是一种罕见的情况。最常转移至甲状腺的恶性肿瘤在临床研究和尸检研究以及不同地理区域之间存在差异。在西方国家，肾癌已被记录为甲状腺转移瘤的常见来源。我们报告一例66岁男性发生透明细胞肾癌甲状腺转移的病例，并讨论其临床、病理和影像学特征。
