摘要
We report a 34-year-old woman with intrathyroid metastasis of choriocarcinoma associated with pulmonary and brain metastasis. The patient presented with a solitary thyroid nodule. Needle biopsy showed anaplastic malignant cells. Pathologic evaluation after thyroidectomy showed choriocarcinoma in the thyroid gland and the patient subsequently underwent combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy with satisfactory response. This is only the third reported case of metastatic choriocarcinoma in the thyroid gland and emphasizes this rare clinical presentation of choriocarcinoma.
