Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is generally considered a highly indolent endocrine malignancy, often accompanied by cervical lymph node metastasis and rarely involving distant metastases. We present a rare case of a 37-year-old woman with PTC, who exhibited regional lymph node metastasis, right breast metastasis, and probable right psoas major and multiple bone metastases. Initial symptoms included hoarseness, and subsequent examination revealed a secondary malignant tumor in the right breast, originating from the thyroid gland. This case highlights an unusual pattern of multiple systemic metastasis in PTC, particularly the rare occurrence of breast metastasis.
甲状腺乳头状癌(PTC)通常被认为是一种惰性很强的内分泌恶性肿瘤,常伴有颈部淋巴结转移,很少发生远处转移。我们报告一例罕见的37岁PTC女性病例,该患者出现区域淋巴结转移、右乳转移以及可能的右腰大肌和多处骨转移。初始症状为声音嘶哑,随后检查发现右乳有一处继发恶性肿瘤,起源于甲状腺。该病例突出了PTC罕见的多系统转移模式,尤其是罕见的乳腺转移情况。
