RESUMO
Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid is a very rare thyroid malignancy. In addition, due to its presentation as a locally advanced disease with a high tendency to metastasize, it has a poor prognosis and outcome. We report a 60-year-old male patient with PSCC, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry on biopsy. The patient was staged as T4N1M0 and was planned as per the multidisciplinary team approach. In sum, pathologic examination and IHC aid in distinguishing this lesion and help in differentiating it from other tumors of similar histology. Furthermore, it also aids in planning treatment.
