Collision tumor is a term denoting two histologically distinct tumor types occuring at the same anatomic site, which is a rare clinical entity. In the thyroid gland, collision tumors are rare. Here we report a case of the synchronous occurrence of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The current case report describes a 40-year-old woman with synchronous FTC and PTC. Pathologists and surgeons should be aware of collision tumors to avoid possible misdiagnosis.
碰撞瘤是指在同一解剖部位出现的两种组织学上不同的肿瘤类型,这是一种罕见的临床实体。在甲状腺中,碰撞瘤很罕见。在此,我们报告一例滤泡性甲状腺癌(FTC)和乳头状甲状腺癌(PTC)同时发生的病例。本病例报告描述了一名患有同步性FTC和PTC的40岁女性。病理学家和外科医生应注意碰撞瘤,以避免可能的误诊。
