Abstract

There are many histological morphological types of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), but the most frequently seen types are conventional. A single PTC commonly has a conventional and/or a variant morphological pattern. PTC with multiple (more than two) well-differentiated morphological patterns are extremely rare. We herein report the rare case of a 48-year-old male with initial diaphragmatic, pancreatic, and liver tumors from PTC. Then, the PTC was discovered following resection of these tumors, an ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (US-FNA) cytology of a huge mass in the thyroid's left lobe revealed a PTC. After postoperative recovery, physical and ultrasound examinations identified an irregular large nodule in the thyroid's isthmus and left lobe, several swollen lymph nodes in the left neck, a mass in the left gluteus maximus, and several masses in both the bilateral parotid and salivary regions. The US-FNA's pathological examination confirmed metastatic PTCs in the left gluteus maximus and bilaterally in the parotid and salivary glands. An 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography and computed tomography scan revealed abnormal uptakes in numerous locations (e.g., thyroid's isthmus and left lobe, bilateral parotid gland, and subcutaneous tissues). The patient underwent palliative therapy-including total thyroidectomy, bilateral central neck dissection, left lateral neck dissection, and excision of the bilateral parotid and salivary glands. A whole-body scan post-therapeutic radioactive iodine ablation revealed exclusive thyroid bed uptake. The patient subsequently underwent thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) repression therapy and chemotherapy with lenvatinib, and thereafter achieved stable clinical conditions. Further histopathological analysis of the PTC revealed multiple differentiated morphological patterns in the single tumor located in the isthmus and left lobe of the thyroid, and in some metastatic lesions. Different metastatic lesions also presented different morphological patterns of PTC. In conclusions, we identified a new entity of PTC as a multiple differentiated variant of PTC (MDV-PTC) with an aggressive clinical nature.

摘要

甲状腺乳头状癌(PTC)有许多组织形态学类型,但最常见的类型是经典型。单个 PTC 通常具有经典型和/或变异型形态模式。具有多种(超过两种)分化良好形态模式的 PTC 极为罕见。本文报道了 1 例罕见的 48 岁男性病例,最初表现为膈肌、胰腺和肝脏肿瘤,这些肿瘤来源于 PTC。在这些肿瘤切除后发现了 PTC,甲状腺左叶巨大肿块的超声引导下细针抽吸(US-FNA)细胞学检查显示为 PTC。术后恢复后,体格检查和超声检查发现甲状腺峡部和左叶有不规则的大结节,左颈部有几个肿大的淋巴结,左臀肌有一个肿块,双侧腮腺和唾液腺区域有几个肿块。US-FNA 的病理检查证实左臀肌和双侧腮腺和唾液腺有转移性 PTC。18-氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描和计算机断层扫描显示多处异常摄取(例如,甲状腺峡部和左叶、双侧腮腺和皮下组织)。患者接受了姑息治疗,包括全甲状腺切除术、双侧中央颈部清扫术、左侧颈部清扫术和双侧腮腺和唾液腺切除术。治疗后放射性碘消融的全身扫描显示仅甲状腺床摄取。随后,患者接受了甲状腺刺激素(TSH)抑制治疗和仑伐替尼化疗,此后临床状况稳定。对 PTC 的进一步组织病理学分析显示,位于甲状腺峡部和左叶以及一些转移病变中的单个肿瘤存在多种分化形态模式。不同的转移病变也表现出不同的 PTC 形态模式。总之,我们确定了一种新的 PTC 实体,即多分化变异型 PTC(MDV-PTC),具有侵袭性的临床特征。
