A NECK MASS MIMICKING THYROID NODULE: RARE PRESENTATION OF A METASTASIZING LUNG ADENOCARCINOMA

Metastasis to the thyroid gland is a rare entity. Particularly the lung origin is an extremely rare situation. Here we presented a patient with a neck mass sited at the right thyroid region. Histopathological examination of the mass revealed “malign disease with an origin of lung adenocarcinoma”. Our report indicates that otolaryngologists, general surgeons, practitioners and pulmonologists need to be aware of this unusual presentation in order to perform accurate diagnosis of the patient
