RESUMO
Enlarged thyroid with retrosternal extension presenting as anterior mediastinal mass is known. Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome due to direct invasion from a primary thyroid malignancy is a rare phenomenon. We present a unique case of papillary carcinoma of thyroid extending into the posterior mediastinum with superior vena cava syndrome along with internal jugular and azygous vein thrombosis.
