Follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC), which is the second common malignancy of the thyroid gland following papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), is usually diagnosed histologically by capsular and/or vascular invasion on permanent section. Meanwhile, it is more likely to metastasize to distant organs rather than to regional lymph nodes. The FTC may present with metastatic disease and the diagnosis can be made by histological examination of the metastatic disease (1). It is now well-known that the eggshell calcification of the thyroid nodule occurs in various benign and malignant diseases of the thyroid gland. Our review of the literature yielded four cases of FTC with eggshell calcification, with three of them presenting with distant metastasis and one with thyroid incidentaloma (2, 3). We report here of a case of FTC in a 74-year-old male, with the interrupted eggshell calcification, presenting with renal and bony metastases along with the findings of primary and metastatic lesions at gray-scale, power Doppler ultrasonography (PD US), and CT scan.
