Abstract
Presentation of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma with thyrotoxicosis is extremely rare and its occurrence in a patient with Wegener's granulomatosis has not been reported previously. We describe an elderly lady with Wegener's granulomatosis who developed a rapidly growing anaplastic thyroid carcinoma in a preexisting multinodular goiter and discuss the mechanism of thyrotoxicosis in this patient.Entities:
