Cytological diagnosis of follicular carcinoma thyroid metastasis in pelvic muscles-a rare and unusual site.

Distant metastasis of thyroid neoplasm as an initial presentation is rarely encountered. The present case report describes a chance diagnosis of follicular carcinoma thyroid (FCT) metastasis in a 75-year-old female who was presented with symptoms related to pelvic mass. This is a rare site of reporting as only three cases have been reported previously at the first diagnosis. It is important to identify the presence of distant metastasis as it is the most important prognostic indicator (associated with 50% mortality). This is significant as this has a direct bearing upon its treatment and managing the patient. Hence more awareness is required by both diagnosticians and clinicians regarding this.
