Abstract

ABSTRACT Thyroid cancer in patients with Graves’ disease (GD) was reported with incidences varying from 2.3% to 21.1%. The prognosis of thyroid cancer in patients with GD has been debatable. Here we present a rare case of papillary thyroid carcinoma associated with GD in a 23-year-old female presenting with goiter and thyrotoxicosis symptoms, diagnosed with GD, who because of suspicious findings, underwent further investigations and was found to have thyroid carcinoma. The patient underwent surgery preceded by antithyroid medications. Histopathological examination confirmed malignancy and further management was done.
