Synchronous Dual Malignancy
Well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of left buccal mucosa & papillary carcinoma of right lobe of thyroid gland.

38 years old male

Patient was being operated for Ca left buccal mucosa. Received frozen section of right level II-IV lateral neck nodes to rule out metastases.
In frozen section, Lymph nodes were negative for metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. Instead, metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma was found incidentally in three lymph nodes.
Intra-operative USG was performed & small ill-defined suspicious lesion was detected in right lobe of thyroid gland.
Total thyroidectomy with left composite resection & bilateral modified neck dissection was performed.

Clinical details: Ulcerative lesion involving left buccal mucosa.
CT scan - ill-defined lesion 12 x 8 mm involving posterior alveolar process of mandible. Mandible bone involved.
Biopsy: Left buccal mucosa: Squamous cell carcinoma, well differentiated

HP Diagnosis:
Left composite resection with bilateral modified neck dissection & total thyroidectomy:
1) Left buccal mucosa - SqCC, WD, Multifocal.
2) Right lobe of thyroid gland - Papillary Carcinoma, Follicular variant, infiltrative (tumor size - 5 x 4 mm)
