Malignant teratomas of the thyroid gland are rare. These are highly malignant tumours with a high frequency of local recurrence and metastases following surgery. We report a case of malignant teratoma of the thyroid gland in a 35-year-old female, who developed local recurrence immediately following total thyroidectomy. Despite achieving local control following chemotherapy and local radiotherapy, the patient developed distant relapse illustrating the aggressive nature of the disease.
甲状腺恶性畸胎瘤罕见。这些是高度恶性的肿瘤，手术后局部复发和转移的频率很高。我们报告一例35岁女性的甲状腺恶性畸胎瘤，该患者在全甲状腺切除术后立即出现局部复发。尽管在化疗和局部放疗后实现了局部控制，但患者仍出现远处复发，这说明了该疾病的侵袭性。
