Primary Malignant Thyroid Teratoma: An Institutional Experience.

CONCLUSIONS: This case series represents the largest and longest follow-up from a single institution in the literature to date on primary malignant thyroid teratomas. Based on the existing literature and the authors' experience with these four patients, it is suggested that neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgical excision is a promising approach for patients with gross extrathyroidal extension, cervical lymph node metastases, and/or distantly metastatic disease.
