Abstract

|

We report a case of cribriform-morular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma associated with familial adenomatous polyposis. A 21-year-old woman presented with multiple, well-defined, oval shaped thyroid nodules, which showed hypo-echoic and solid mixed with some cystic components by ultrasound, and poorly enhancing and low dense by CT scan. Cytological finding was compatible with papillary carcinoma. Total thyroidectomy was performed and nodules were palated soft. Histologic analysis confirmed the diagnosis of cribriform-morular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Familial adenomatous polyposis, thereafter, was diagnosed by family history and colonoscopy, and preventive colectomy was performed.
