Article Abstract
Background: Thyroid metastasis of soft tissue sarcoma is very rare, and the diagnosis is especially difficult when only a single lesion is present.
Case Presentation: A 50-year-old man was diagnosed with myxoid liposarcoma of the right thigh and treated with wide resection. Two and a half years after the surgery, a growing low-density area was incidentally observed in the right lobe of his thyroid gland on follow-up chest computed tomography. Fine needle aspiration biopsy was performed twice, and the thyroid mass was suspected of being a sarcoma metastasis. He was treated by hemithyroidectomy, and the lesion was pathologically confirmed as a metastasis of myxoid liposarcoma.
Conclusion: We experienced single thyroid gland metastasis in patients with myxoid liposarcoma in whom a growing mass is observed in the thyroid gland after radical surgery of the primary site.

Background: The primary goals of surgical management in thyroid disorders are the treatment of malignancy, goiter, and thyrotoxicosis, while adhering to the principle of 'primum non nocere'. Hypocalcemia is among the most common complications, primarily resulting from inadvertent injury to the parathyroid glands.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 2015-2023 records of Polish pediatric patients who underwent thyroid surgery.

Introduction: Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the thyroid gland and elevated specific antibodies. Its incidence rises annually, yet no standardized animal model fully mimics human AIT. Given unclear pathogenesis and lack of targeted immunotherapies, researchers invest significant time in developing suitable models.

Background: Over the past decade, the remarkable rise in differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) incidence, combined with the limitations of conventional diagnostic approaches, have prompted this study to explore the diagnostic value of thyroid-related serological indicators and pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) for DTC, based on advancements in molecular biology and immunology.
Methods: Based on postoperative pathological diagnosis, the present retrospective research comprised 112 individuals afflicted with DTC (observation group) and 93 individuals having benign thyroid tumors (control group) from January 2023 to January 2025. Differences in clinical data between the two groups were analyzed via univariate statistical methods.

Empty sella (ES) involves herniation of the pituitary fossa, leading to pituitary flattening. While typically associated with central hypothyroidism, its co-occurrence with hyperthyroidism is rarely reported and often overlooked. We report a rare case of hyperthyroidism in a patient with ES.

Objective: To investigate the association between thyroid hormone sensitivity indices and bone metabolism markers in newly diagnosed middle-aged and elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with normal thyroid function.
Method: We retrospectively analyzed 350 newly diagnosed T2DM patients (≥ 45 years), stratified by bone mineral density into Group A (normal bone density group) and Group B (low bone mass and osteoporosis group). General data and clinical biochemical parameters were collected: free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), parathyroid hormone (PTH), osteocalcin (OC), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), serum calcium (Ca), serum phosphorus (P), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobinA1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), serum creatinine (SCr), serum uric acid (SUA), and estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR).
