C. Gomezfernandez et al., METASTATIC MEDULLARY-THYROID CARCINOMA IN LIVER DIAGNOSIS BY ASPIRATION CYTOLOGY, Diagnostic cytopathology, 11(3), 1994, pp. 277-280
A case of metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) to the liver of
a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) Type rib was sugges
ted by percutaneous fine-needle aspiration cytology and confirmed by h
istology and immunohistochemistry. The cytologic presentation of this
unusual thyroid cancer in liver has not been previously reported. We r
eport such a case and discuss its differential diagnosis from other me
tastatic tumors of the liver. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
