Collaborative Approach for Patient Management: Parapharyngeal Metastasis of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

Abstract

A collaborative approach is important in the management of patients, in order to facilitate discussion, and allow cross-checking, in order to achieve the optimal outcome for patient care. Here we present a case, where a collaborative approach allowed the pre-operative identification of an unusual site of metastasis for recurrent papillary thyroid cancer, leading to the change of treatment plan.
