Lymphoma and Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: A Case Series

Occurrences of lymphoma and differentiated thyroid cancer are rare. Usually, involvement of the thyroid gland is seen as a part of extranodal involvement or as a part of radiation-induced malignant transformation in previously treated lymphoma patients. The incidence of synchronous hematological mal...

description Occurrences of lymphoma and differentiated thyroid cancer are rare. Usually, involvement of the thyroid gland is seen as a part of extranodal involvement or as a part of radiation-induced malignant transformation in previously treated lymphoma patients. The incidence of synchronous hematological malignancy with differentiated thyroid cancer is 7%. The synchronous occurrence of differentiated thyroid cancer and lymphoma poses a significant diagnostic and treatment dilemma. Here we report a case series of four patients with lymphoma and differentiated thyroid cancer. All four patients had lymphoma treated first followed by definitive management of thyroid malignancy.
