    Abstract Distant metastases from carcinomas of the oral cavity are rare. Detection of these metastasis are essential for staging and management of the patient. These tumours may metastasize to lung, liver, brain and bone; but pleural involvement by squamous-cell carcinoma is distinctly rare. We present a case of bilateral pleural effusion arising from distant metastasis of squamous-cell carcinoma detected on cytology.

    Abstract Acute suppurative thyroiditis is a rare life-threatening endocrine emergency. The thyroid gland has rich vascularity and lymphatic drainage, has large amounts of iodine in the tissue, generates hydrogen peroxide, and is encapsulated. Owing to these factors, infection of the thyroid gland is rare. The clinical presentation of acute suppurative thyroiditis closely resembles that of subacute thyroiditis, with a differentiation possible only on fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). However, differentiating these two conditions is important because the management of these two conditions differs drastically. Management includes intravenous antibiotics, drainage of abscesses, and sometimes surgery may be required. Here, we present a case of thyroid abscess caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), diagnosed using FNAC of the thyroid gland and blood culture.

    Abstract Introduction Lymphocytic thyroiditis is an autoimmune disorder and one of the major causes of hypothyroidism. On cytomorphology, it is characterized by follicular destruction by lymphocytes with elevated biochemical markers, including a panel of autoantibodies against thyroid antigens. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of various cytological features of lymphocytic thyroiditis and their correlation with clinical presentation and biochemical parameters. Materials and methods We conducted a hospital-based cross-sectional study of 105 patients diagnosed with lymphocytic thyroiditis on cytology at our tertiary care center in the Himalayan foothills from December 2018 to December 2019. We recorded and analyzed baseline demographic characteristics, clinical features, and biochemical parameters to assess correlations between cytological findings and grades. Results The study included 105 patients with lymphocytic thyroiditis (90 females, 15 males). The study population age ranged from 11 years to 80 years, with the disease most common in patients aged 21 to 40 years. Grade II was the most common cytological presentation (n=65, 62%). Thyroid-stimulating hormone levels were elevated in 33.3% of cases, and anti-thyroid peroxidase levels were elevated in all 25 cases for whom data were available (p>0.05). Conclusion Cytological diagnosis of lymphocytic thyroiditis was compatible in all cases in the study. However, cytological grading did not correlate with the clinical presentation and biochemical parameters. The diagnosis of lymphocytic thyroiditis could be missed if clinicians use clinical findings and biochemical parameters alone.
