Abstract
Thyroid nodules constitute a diagnostic challenge mainly because of the need to exclude thyroid malignancy. It is estimated that in recent years, with the use of thyroid ultrasound and other neck imaging modalities, nodules too small to be palpated are more often discovered. Papillary thyroid microcarcinomas, as defined by the World Health Organization less than 1.0 cm in size. We intend to present a rare case of a 52 years male, who presented with a cystic lump over medial aspect of anterior neck, with fine needle aspiration cytology suggestive of colloid goiter. Histopathology confirmed the cytological diagnosis with an associated incidental rare finding of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma. So the possibility of thyroid microcarcinoma should always be kept in mind while diagnosing a benign thyroid disease.
