Thyroid cancer necrosis not evident on imaging : A cautionary case series on poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma diagnosed only on final pathology
Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..
OBJECTIVE: Poorly-differentiated thyroid cancer (PDTC) is a highly aggressive malignancy which is recently defined and understudied in the radiologic literature. Necrosis is a key histopathologic criterion for the diagnosis of PDTC. We illustrate the current difficulty in accurate identification of histopathologic necrosis on preoperative imaging.
METHODS: A series of seven patients with the final diagnosis of PDTC from our institution were identified. Multimodality preoperative imaging was analyzed by two head and neck radiologists. Final pathology reports were queried confirming histopathologic evidence of necrosis.
RESULTS: Patients presented with a wide range of preoperative imaging features. A consistent imaging appearance confirming necrosis was not identified. All patients were subsequently upstaged to PDTC following final pathological analysis.
CONCLUSION: A lack of definitive evidence of necrosis on preoperative imaging does not exclude the possibility of PDTC. We demonstrate the need for further research to establish a clear methodology for the preoperative diagnosis of PDTC.
