Abstract

Iodine Radioisotopes Neck Dissection Online Case Report Thyroid Neoplasms Thyrotoxicosis
Primary thyroid carcinoma after thyroid ablation by radioactive iodine is rare. We present a very rare condition of lateral apparent papillary thyroid carcinoma eight years after receiving radioactive iodine for thyrotoxicosis, which led to complete anatomical and functional involution of the thyroid gland.
