Case Report Diagnosis of bone metastasis from thyroid carcinoma: a multidisciplinary approach

Sarcomas are rare tumors originating from soft tissue or bone. Diagnosis and treatment of sarcomas should be per-formed at specialized sarcoma centers, where patients are evaluated at a multidisciplinary tumor conference. We present a case where sarcoma was suspected from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but histology revealed a metastasis from thyroid carcinoma, although the patient had no previous history of thyroid malignancy and resection of the thyroid gland was without malignancy. Ultrasound-guided biopsy was possible due to cortical destruction and the multidisciplinary approach with re-evaluation of previous pathology and a thorough patient history enabled a final diagnosis
