We present a rare case of a 26-year old woman with diffuse sclerosing variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma. The patient was referred to our hospital with diffuse enlargement of the thyroid accompanied with palpable bilateral cervical lymph nodes. Ultrasonography showed a heterogeneous pattern with ill-defined hypoechoic areas in both thyroid lobes. There were multiple small punctate echogenic foci. Fine-needle aspiration cytology revealed typical signs of papillary carcinoma. The patient underwent a total thyroidectomy using a bilateral modified neck dissection. Pathological findings demonstrated diffuse involvement and continuous infiltration of the tumors to both thyroid lobes, lymph nodes and cervical soft tissue. Postoperatively, 100 mCi of 131I was administrated to the small amount of residual thyroid tissue. The patient is free from recurrence one year after the operation.
