Article Synopsis
- - A 49-year-old woman experienced severe symptoms, including fatigue and resistant hypertension, leading to the diagnosis of ectopic Cushing's syndrome caused by an atypical neuroendocrine tumor found in the thymus.
- - Diagnostic tests confirmed excessive adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) levels and indicated a tumor, which was surgically removed following successful medical management to lower cortisol levels.
- - Post-surgery, the patient entered clinical remission without tumor recurrence, demonstrating the importance of early detection and treatment of these rare and potentially life-threatening tumors.
Our goal was to assess the effectiveness of fine-needle aspiration thyroglobulin (FNA-Tg) in detecting malignant lymph nodes (LNs) in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC).

We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the laboratory, ultrasonographic, histopathological, FNA cytology (FNA-C), and FNA-Tg results of 176 DTC patients.
