| Zusammenfassung: | Malignant lesions and tuberculosis coexisting at the same anatomical site in a patient are extremely uncommon. We present a case of a 53-year-old female with cervical lymphadenitis tuberculosis combined with metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma. Thyroidectomy was performed on the patient with central and lateral neck dissection. The patient received anti-tuberculosis medication and radioactive iodine ablation. No recurrence was observed during a 2-year follow-up period. |
