Papillary thyroid cancer with unusually aggressive behaviour. Case report.
Publication/Presentation Date

Abstract
A 22-year-old woman underwent thyroid lobectomy for papillary carcinoma (follicular variant). Local recurrences 4 and 7 months later, with vascular invasion and extrathyroid spread, required extensive surgery and radiotherapy. Ipsilateral lobectomy with near-total or total contralateral lobectomy is advocated for treatment of papillary thyroid cancer.
