Abstract:
Although the incidence of thyroid carcinoma has increased in recent years, follicular thyroid carcinoma with bone metastasis as the first symptom remains rare. Here, we report a case of occult follicular thyroid carcinoma in a 65-year-old female patient admitted to hospital with cerebrovascular disease. Computed tomography findings suggested a diagnosis of meningioma; however, magnetic resonance imaging results showed multiple skull bone destruction with soft tissue masses on the left side of the skull. After surgical resection, the pathology results revealed skull metastasis of follicular thyroid carcinoma. We present this case not only because of the diagnostic challenge it posed, but also because the patient had multiple skull metastases from follicular thyroid carcinoma.
