Many psammoma bodies were found in the pericardial specimens and malignant cells with folliculoid pattern were observed in the pleural biopsy, arousing suspicion of occult papillary thyroid carcinoma. In the thyroid gland after total thyroidectomy a 4 mm sclerosing carcinoma was found. © 1986, Gustav Fischer Verlag · Stuttgart · New York.
