Abstract

We present a case of rare metastasis of tonsil squamous cell carcinoma to the thyroid gland, after 2 years of treatment without recurrence at the primary site. The patient had incidental finding of a nodule in the left lobe of the thyroid gland during a screening scan for his previous tonsil squamous cell carcinoma that was treated surgically 2 years ago. The patient was completely asymptomatic with normal thyroid function tests. After further investigations and discussion in the MDT meeting, the patient underwent left thyroid lobectomy as a definitive treatment for his thyroid metastasis.

摘要

我们报告一例罕见的扁桃体鳞状细胞癌转移至甲状腺的病例，该患者在原发部位接受治疗2年后未复发。患者在对两年前接受手术治疗的扁桃体鳞状细胞癌进行筛查扫描时，偶然发现甲状腺左叶有一个结节。患者完全无症状，甲状腺功能检查正常。经过进一步检查并在多学科诊疗会议上讨论后，患者接受了左甲状腺叶切除术，作为其甲状腺转移灶的确定性治疗。
