Abstract
Papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common malignancy among females in Saudi Arabia and may present in an advanced stage and with dis-tant metastases, mostly to the lungs, comprising 32% of the recurrences. Airway invasion is a life-threatening complication of thyroid cancer. The differentiation between the clinical features of bronchial wall invasion versus those of an ob-structive endobronchial lesion deserves more at-tention. Endobronchial lesion may present with no symptoms. We report have a patient with papillary carcinoma of the thyroid associated with endobronchial metastases in the absence of other sites of tumor dissemination.
