Purpose

We would describe multimodality imaging findings of primary and secondary thyroid lymphoma and also feasible pathologic correlation.

 Content

  1. To review of primary thyroid lymphoma manifesting as thyroid nodule
  2. To review of primary thyroid lymphoma manifesting as diffuse thyroid lesion
  3. To review of secondary lymphoma manifesting as lateral neck lymphadenopathy

Conclusion

Awareness of various ultrasonographic findings of thyroid lymphoma is helpful to differentiate from other malignancy. It would facilitate the direct application of core biopsy skipping over the inappropriate find-needle aspiration and could establish the correct therapeutic guideline.
