“…In a study by Repplinger et al [10] HT is associated with an increased risk of developing PTC. In a case report by Yildirim et al [11] concurrent papillary carcinoma thyroid and malignant epithelioid peripheral nerve sheath tumour were seen in post irradiation case of Hodgkin's disease. Though primary spindle cell tumour of thyroid (spindle cell variant of PTC) are can rarely cause confusion but they will be positive for TTF1 and negative for S100.…”

Schwannomas are common benign neurogenic tumours that arise from Schwann cells of nerve roots; up to 45% arise in head and neck. However primary thyroid schwannomas are extremely rare. Among thyroid tumours papillary carcinoma of thyroid (PCT) are the most common. Hurthle cell neoplasms arealso rare.In addition occurrence of all the three neoplasms in the same patient is extremely rare. In this report we discuss a case of left lobe intrathryroidal schwannoma with papillary carcinoma of thryroid (PCT), Hurthle cell adenoma and background Hashimoto thyroiditis in a 25 year old female. On FNAC it was diagnosed as colloid nodule with cystic change, total thyroidectomy was done and histopathological examination showed that the largest well circumscribed nodule wasa benign neurogenic tumour, schwannoma (left lobe of thryroid gland). There were other smaller thyroid nodules; one showing papillary carcinoma with lymph node metastasis and other showing hurthle cell adenoma with backgroundHashimoto's thyroiditis.

Primary leiomyosarcoma of the thyroid gland is uncommon. To date, 20 cases have been reported in English in the literature. The tumors usually present in elderly patients with female predilection and are associated with poor clinical outcome. Herein, we report an additional case of primary thyroid leiomyosarcoma in a 64-year-old woman. She underwent total thyroidectomy and later was discovered to have multiple lung and liver metastases. The patient died 3 months after surgery. The major differential diagnoses including undifferentiated (anaplastic) carcinoma of the thyroid, spindle cell variant of medullary thyroid carcinoma, spindle cell tumor with thymus-like differentiation, uncommon primary tumor of the thyroid and metastatic tumors with predominant spindle cells are discussed.

Concurrent epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor and papillary thyroid carcinoma in the treated field of Hodgkin's disease

Abstract: Concurrent malignancies in the field of treatment of Hodgkin's disease may occur. Rare malignancies including malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor may be encountered along with the more common papillary thyroid carcinoma.
