Abstract: Authors present a rare case of the papillary thyroid carcinoma in thyroglossal duct cyst in a 40 year-old woman. Preoperative assessment (palpation and ultrasonography) showed symptoms of typical thyroglossal duct cyst and the final diagnosis was established after histopathological examination of the surgical specimen. Epidemiology, diagnostic methods and treatment of this rare disease were also discussed in the study.

“…On histopathological examination, invasion of the cyst wall, the presence of respiratory-type and squamous epithelium, as well as their coexistence with normal thyroid follicular within the walls of the cyst, are crucial in making a diagnosis of TDCC [14,17]. Nowadays, a lack of primary thyroid carcinoma on histopathological examination of the thyroid gland is not needed to diagnose primary TDCC [6,9].…”

“…In children, TDCs account for 70-75% of all midline neck tumors. Ectopic thyroid tissue may be localized in the thyroglossal duct remnants (in over 50-65% of all cysts), and in 1% of all patients, this is the only functioning thyroid tissue in the body [2,3,[6][7][8][9]. Most TDCs are benign tumors, however, 0.7-1.5% develop into carcinoma [10,11].…”
