It is extremely rare that sarcomas metastasize to the thyroid. We report a case of a 49 year old male with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) metastatic to the thyroid that was diagnosed by ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (FNA). The FNA cytology showed numerous loosely cohesive…

Thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) is known to play key roles in thyroid organogenesis, in thyroid cell proliferation and in the expression of genes involved in thyroid differentiated function. Many human thyroid cancer cell lines keep producing TTF-1 despite the loss of differentiated gene expr…

Primary thyroid leiomyosarcoma, is extremely rare, with only 19 cases reported in the literature to date. Onset of the tumor, which usually develops in only one lobe of the thyroid, is sudden and the tumor spreads rapidly to surrounding tissues. Preoperative differential diagnosis is extremely diffi…
