A 14-year-old neutered male cat was presented because of a left ventral cervical mass. Based on imaging, the mass was suspected to have a thyroid origin. There was no evidence of gross metastatic disease or hyperthyroidism. Left thyroidectomy alone was the treatment for this patient and a thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed on histopathology. At last follow-up, 831 days after surgery, there was suspicion of metastasis to the lungs and the cat had developed a right thyroid mass and hyperthyroidism. Key clinical message: This case report identifies a non-hypersecretory thyroid carcinoma. This is a rare diagnosis. The outcome with surgery alone was comparable to that reported for treatment with iodine.
一只14岁已绝育的雄性猫因左颈部腹侧肿块前来就诊。根据影像学检查，怀疑该肿块起源于甲状腺。没有明显转移疾病或甲状腺功能亢进的证据。对该患者仅进行了左侧甲状腺切除术，组织病理学诊断为甲状腺癌。在最后一次随访时，即手术后831天，怀疑有肺转移，且这只猫出现了右侧甲状腺肿块和甲状腺功能亢进。关键临床信息：本病例报告识别出一例非高分泌性甲状腺癌。这是一种罕见的诊断。单纯手术的结果与碘治疗报告的结果相当。
