Abstract

Solitary thyroid nodule should raise a suspicion of malignancy, which is very common in middle-aged females. Papillary carcinoma thyroid is the most common thyroid malignancy. Warthin-like papillary carcinoma is one of its rare variants. It has a frequent association with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Here, we report a case of 43-year-old female who presented with swelling in the anterior aspect of neck for 1 month. Fine-needle aspiration cytology features were suggestive of papillary carcinoma thyroid and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of Warthin-like papillary carcinoma thyroid. This variant is of great clinical and prognostic significance as it carries an excellent prognosis.
