Megaprosthesis for a Rare Case of Bone Metastasis of Thyroid Carcinoma: Case Management and Surgical Approach.

ABSTRACT

We present the case of a 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with Hürthle cell carcinoma (HCC) that developed widespread metastasis in bone, lung, and lymph nodes with a larger tumor located in the right tibia. The patient was only disturbed by the pain, discomfort, and disability linked to the tibial metastasis. After careful consideration, the best course of action was considered to be the surgical excision of the proximal right tibia with arthroplasty using the C LINK Megaprosthesis tumor revision system. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses were conducted on the tibial resection specimen. In addition, a comprehensive review of prior histological specimens from the primary thyroid tumor, lymph nodes, and lung was undertaken to evaluate the prognosis and provide guidance for the postoperative management of the patient.
