Abstract EN
Primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) is defined as a lymphoma involving only the thyroid gland or both thyroid gland and neck lymph nodes, without contiguous spread or distant metastases from other areas of involvement at diagnosis.
Despite its rarity, PTL should be promptly recognized because its management is quite different from the treatment of other neoplasms of the thyroid gland.
In the present study, we report a case of PTL treated by surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy.
Otherwise, literature review allowed us to define main characteristics of this located lymphoma
