ABSTRACT Phenomenon of adenoma-carcinoma is well-known in gastrointestinal tract tumors (GIT), but evidence of such sequence in thyroid oncogenic phylogeny is inconsistent. Frequently mixed/hybrid pathologies can occur in the same thyroid gland. We report an interesting case of such mixed tumors with inherent oncological sequence to discuss this issue in thyroid gland.

An interesting case report of thyroid carcinoma in this issue1 reflects the concern of many pediatricians regarding the use of iodine 131 (131I) for diagnostic purposes in children. Perhaps it is time to review the role of the use and the safety of iodine 131 thyroid uptake and scan in evaluation of disorders of the thyroid gland in children. With today's technology, thyroid uptake determinations can be performed with extremely low amounts of iodine 131. Large sodium iodine crystals of high sensitivity and long counting time allow doses of a fraction of 1 microcurie (i.e., = 0.1 to 0.5µCi), with a resulting thyroid absorbed dose varying with age but always much lower than that in the case report.1

Introduction Lipomas of the gastrointestinal tract are rare, slow-growing lesions that comprise 0.4% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms. They can cause dysphagia, dyspnoea or sudden choking. Case History Due to rarity of this condition and its uncommon presentation, a literature review was carried out (PubMed). This search revealed 290 articles, of which 74 were considered pertinent and were evaluated. We report a case of a 13cm pedunculated oesophageal lipoma that presented with increasing dysphagia and two episodes of suffocation. The patient underwent curative resection through a cervical approach. Conclusions Resection is recommended for large (>5 cm) or symptomatic polyps. Outcomes are excellent given that lesions are universally benign and oesophageal resection is not required.
