RESUMEN
A 65 years old lady presented with a large thyroid swelling along with a soft, non-tender mass over the left parietal region and a small, hard, non-tender swelling over the volar aspect of right forearm. FNAC reports from the thyroid gland and the swellings over head and forearm all revealed features of follicular neoplasm. Excision biopsy of the forearm swelling showed histology of metastatic poorly differentiated follicular adenocarcinoma of thyroid. The patient underwent total thyroidectomy followed by excision of the mass over the head, a week later. She was discharged in favourable condition with advice to attend oncology department for subsequent management. She is yet to attend surgical outdoor for follow-up.
