| Description | Renal carcinoma metastasis to the thyroid gland is not particularly rare; the interval since the initial diagnosis in the case presented, that is, nephrectomy, is more of a rarity. We present the case of a 58-year-old man admitted to our hospital with the diagnosis of polynodular retrosternal goitre. Complete thyroidectomy by cervical approach was performed. Histological examination showed multiple metastases of conventional renal carcinoma located within colloid struma polynodosa. Postoperative progress was uneventful, the surgical wound healed per primam. Renal carcinoma metastasing to the thyroid gland is rather unusual and is often found only postoperatively. |
