Subacute thyroiditis, which is most commonly observed after a viral infection and may heal spontaneously, is an inflammatory thyroid disease. The co-occurrence of subacute thyroiditis and papillary carcinoma is quite rare. A 58-year-old male patient who applied to our hospital with the complaints of sore throat and neck swelling was performed total thyroidectomy following physical examination, ultrasound, and laboratory analysis. In histopathological examination, many granuloma structures were observed in both lobes, and a papillary microcarcinoma focus of 2 mm in diameter was seen in the left lobe. The co-occurrence of subacute thyroiditis and papillary carcinoma was deemed worthy of presentation as it is rarely observed.
亚急性甲状腺炎是一种炎症性甲状腺疾病,最常见于病毒感染后,可能会自发愈合。亚急性甲状腺炎与乳头状癌同时出现的情况非常罕见。一名58岁男性患者因咽痛和颈部肿胀前来我院就诊,经体格检查、超声检查和实验室分析后接受了全甲状腺切除术。在组织病理学检查中,双侧叶均观察到许多肉芽肿结构,左叶可见一个直径为2mm的乳头状微癌灶。亚急性甲状腺炎与乳头状癌同时出现的情况因其罕见而值得报道。
