Cranium Metastasis: An Unusual Presentation of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma

Cranium Metastasis: An Unusual Presentation of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma

Distant metastasis may be the initial sign of differentiated thyroid carcinoma in rare cases. In this instance, the treatment approach is usually individualized. Unlike most other cancers, local treatment of the primary tumor (total thyroidectomy) is preferred as ablative surgery; so that radioactiv...
