Abstract
Thyroglossal tract cyst carcinoma (TTCC) is a rare pathological situation, The challenge is mainly in the surgical management. In this article, we report a new case of papillary TTCC in a 51 years old female patient, not suspected preoperatively and confirmed postoperatively by histological analysis of the resected specimen. The therapeutic strategy was completed by a total thyroidectomy with adjuvant treatment with radioactive iodine and hormone restraint therapy. The outcome was favorable after 7 years of follow-up. In the absence of clear guidelines, the management of TTCC depends on the clinical situation and the experience of the treating team.
