Abstract
|
|
|
We report a rare case of thyroid metastasis from early gastric cancer with lymph node metastasis in a 63-yr old woman. She was diagnosed with metastatic adenocarcinoma one and a half years after distal subtotal gastrectomy, by fine needle aspiration (FNA) using thyroid sonography. Thyroid metastasis from gastric cancer is extremely rare, and this case is particular in that it is the first report of thyroid metastasis from early gastric cancer.
