FUNGATING NECK MASS IN A 12 YEAR OLD GIRL; A DIAGNOSTIK DILEMMA. CASE REPORT.

Abstract

Neck masses we commonly come across are mostly due to enlarged lymph nodes. This can affect any age group. A lateral neck mass sometimes may present as a malignant tumour. Here we report the case of a 12 years old girl who presented with a fungating mass at the right side of her neck. FNAC of the swelling was suggestive of malignant spindle cell lesion and showed a background of thin colloid. The pathologist raised the suspicion of an anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. The girl was operated for a neck mass 8 months back with a provisional clinical diagnosis of a thyroid swelling but the biopsy report was benign solitary fibrous tumour.
