RESUMO
Lipoid lesions of the thyroid gland are very rare. Fat-containing thyroid lesions include a variety of clinical-pathological disorders, such as adenolipomas, thyrolipomatosis, and lipomatous tissue, in the event of amyloidosis. Herein, we report a case of diffuse thyrolipomatosis with amyloidosis and incidentally detected papillary carcinoma of the thyroid in a 51-year-old female patient who clinically presented with a multinodular goiter. Amyloidosis in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid is very rare and can be primary or secondary amyloidosis. Thyrolipomatosis, amyloid goiter, and papillary carcinoma of the thyroid is a rare combination, and to our knowledge, this is the third reported case in the literature. The association of amyloidosis and the rare occurrence of a differentiated carcinoma have to be considered, as in the case of thyroid lipomatosis.
