Secretory Carcinoma of the Thyroid: A Case Report and Update of Literature.

Primary secretory carcinoma (SC) of the thyroid gland is a rare neoplasm, characterized by the presence of oncogenic ETV6::NTRK3 fusions, which are amenable to tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitor therapy. Despite its morphologic, immunophenotypic, and genetic similarities to SC of the salivary and mammary glands, diagnostic pitfalls may arise in differentiating from papillary thyroid carcinoma due to overlapping features such as papillary growth, nuclear irregularity, and variable expression of PAX8. Tumor misclassification may lead to delayed consideration of molecular testing and targeted therapy.
