Abstract
A-60-year-old elderly female presented with long standing swelling over the right shoulder. Thyroid was enlarged on examination and along with the routine work-up of patient, serum thyroid function test; Ultrasonography and Chest X-ray were performed. FNAC was performed from both the swellings i.e., thyroid gland and shoulder, and a provisional diagnosis of metastatic follicular carcinoma of thyroid was made A combination of proper history, along with serological markers, and fine needle aspiration cytology findings are necessary to make a provisional diagnosis of thyroid neoplasms. Also, a long term follow up is necessary to knock down the impact of metastases in previously diagnosed follicular thyroid carcinomas.
