Abstract Background: Primary angiosarcoma of the thyroid is a rare, aggressive thyroid malignancy most typically found in the Alpine regions of Europe. We present a case of non-Alpine thyroid angiosarcoma complicated by recurrent surgical bed hematoma. Case: An 81-year-old Albanian man presented with two months of dyspnea and hemoptysis and was found to have a large thyroid mass, multiple subcentimeter pulmonary nodules, and a left pleural effusion seen on CTA of the chest. He had a suppressed TSH < 0.008 uIU/mL (n 0.400-4.200 uIU/mL) on presentation with a normal free T4 (1.36 ng/dL; n 0.80-1.50 ng/dL) and total T3 (107 ng/dL; n 87-178 ng/dL). Labs from 3 years prior were consistent with prior subclinical hyperthyroidism: TSH 0.28 uIU/mL, free T4 1.35 ng/dL, and free T3 3.98 pg/mL (n 2-4.4 pg/mL). A thyroid ultrasound was performed and showed multiple bilateral thyroid nodules, the largest of which was 6.0 x 7.8 x 5.4 cm in the right lower pole. He had no compressive symptoms and was clinically euthyroid. FNA of the nodule was non-diagnostic and cytology of the pleural fluid was negative for malignancy. He underwent a bronchoscopy which showed blood clots without endobronchial lesions, VATS with pleural biopsy, and right hemithyroidectomy. Pathology showed high grade epithelioid malignancy arranged in solid, variably discohesive nests and sheets, associated with vague vasoformative features and hemorrhage. Immunostains were diffusely and strongly positive for ERG as well as CD31 and AE1/3, but negative for PAX-8, TTF-1, and thyroglobulin, supporting a diagnosis of angiosarcoma. The remainder of the thyroid tissue was non-neoplastic with multinodular hyperplasia. After initial discharge, he re-presented on post-op day 10 with bleeding from the surgical site. CT of the neck showed extensive hematoma (10.3 x 5.0 x 8.7 cm) and he was taken back to the OR for evacuation. Residual tumor tissue found along the R carotid artery was determined to be the culprit. Over the next month the patient remained admitted for supportive transfusions, and palliative radiation to the pulmonary nodules and the residual tumor was initiated. His hospitalization was complicated by a proximal lower extremity DVT, which was treated with an IVC filter. Repeat chest imaging at six weeks showed new and progressive pulmonary nodules. Upon completion of 3 weeks of RT the patient was discharged debilitated, fatigued, and using supplemental oxygen. His family elected to pursue hospice care. Conclusion: This case represents a rare, aggressive malignancy complicated by extrathyroidal extension and recurrent hematoma resulting in severe morbidity and precluding further systemic interventions. These highly vascular tumors likely present an elevated risk for postoperative hematoma which clinicians should recognize.
