- - Papillary thyroid carcinoma typically presents as a painless, irregular mass in the thyroid region, often seen in middle-aged individuals; however, it may show varied symptoms like hoarseness and difficulty swallowing.
- - A case study of a 63-year-old man showed an unusual presentation of this cancer, initially mistaken for lymphoma due to the absence of thyroid swelling and presence of multiple swollen lymph nodes in the neck.
- - The case emphasizes the importance of fine-needle aspiration over excision biopsies in diagnosing neck swellings, as misdiagnosis or improper biopsy can lead to complications and worsen the prognosis for conditions like papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is generally considered a highly indolent endocrine malignancy, often accompanied by cervical lymph node metastasis and rarely involving distant metastases. We present a rare case of a 37-year-old woman with PTC, who exhibited regional lymph node metastasis, right breast metastasis, and probable right psoas major and multiple bone metastases. Initial symptoms included hoarseness, and subsequent examination revealed a secondary malignant tumor in the right breast, originating from the thyroid gland.
