OBJECTIVE
It is uncommon for dermatomyositis to be associated with papillary thyroid cancer. We report an unusual case of papillary thyroid cancer presenting with dermatomyositis.
METHODS
The case history, imaging and laboratory data is reviewed.
RESULTS
We report the case of a 62-year-old female with a prior history of dermatomyositis and breast cancer who presented with a recurrent episode of dermatomyositis. Extensive evaluation of the cause of the dermatomyositis recurrence revealed no recurrence of the breast cancer but a thyroid nodule was identified. The nodule was biopsied and the patient was noted to have papillary thyroid cancer. The patient subsequently underwent total thyroidectomy and had gradual improvement in her dermatomyositis.
CONCLUSION
It is very uncommon for dermatomyositis to be associated with papillary thyroid cancer.
目的
皮肌炎与甲状腺乳头状癌相关的情况并不常见。我们报告一例表现为皮肌炎的甲状腺乳头状癌罕见病例。
方法
回顾病例史、影像学和实验室数据。
结果
我们报告一例62岁女性，既往有皮肌炎和乳腺癌病史，此次因皮肌炎复发就诊。对皮肌炎复发原因进行广泛评估后发现乳腺癌未复发，但发现一个甲状腺结节。对该结节进行活检，发现患者患有甲状腺乳头状癌。患者随后接受了甲状腺全切术，皮肌炎逐渐改善。
结论
皮肌炎与甲状腺乳头状癌相关的情况非常罕见。
