Abstract
We report case of massive pleural effusion caused by papillary thyroid cancer, which was accompanied by multiple pulmonary metastasis. A 60‑year‑old female patient presented with shortness of breath and cough due to massive left pleural fluid. Since cytological and cytochemical studies were not conclusive for the primary tumor, and the measurement of thyroglobulin washout has been recommended as a complementary study in suspicious cervical lymph nodes, we performed it using the cut- off points used in cervical lymph nodes.
