Thyroid Metastases from Colon Cancer
Imaging findings
CT chest and neck demonstrate multiple bilateral hypervascular nodules within the thyroid gland, in a patient with metastatic colon and prostate cancer.
Key takeaways
Metastases to the thyroid gland are uncommon but can occur with hypervascular tumors such as renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, or colon cancer. They can be discovered incidentally on staging scans and must be distinguished from primary thyroid neoplasms or benign multinodular goiter.
