Resumen

Las metástasis tiroideas son raras (3%) y pueden proceder de cualquier neoplasia que metastatice por vía hemática, como el cáncer de mama. Cualquier nódulo tiroideo en pacientes con tumor primario conocido no tiroideo, se debe estudiar. Lo recomendable es combinar la citología-aspiración con aguja fina y el ultrasonido, que permite diferenciar nódulos únicos o múltiples, unilaterales o bilaterales, y detecta afectación linfática del cuello. El tratamiento suele considerarse paliativo porque es habitual que la masa tiroidea aparezca en el contexto de otras metástasis. El diagnóstico precoz y un tratamiento agresivo con quimioterapia y radioterapia, pueden contribuir a prolongar la supervivencia.

Palabras clave:
Metástasis tiroides
Carcinoma de mama
Nódulo tiroideo
Abstract

Thyroid metastases are rare (3%) and can proceed from any neoplasm that metastasizes hematogenously, such as breast cancer. Any thyroid nodule in patients with a known primary nonthyroid tumor must be evaluated. The combination of ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology is recommended to determine whether nodules are solitary or multiple, unilateral or bilateral, and whether there is neck lymph node involvement. Treatment used to be considered palliative because the thyroid mass usually appears in the context of polymetastases. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy may help to prolong survival.

Key words:
Thyroid metastasis
Breast carcinoma
Thyroid nodule
