Follicular Thyroid Carcinoma Spreading to the Femur in a Developing Community

Wilson Onuigbo I B*

The peculiar colloid appearance of thyroid carcinoma helps in the diagnosis of its metastases. Now, this was helpful in comparing its skull metastasis among the Japanese and the Igbos, who live in a developing community in South Eastern Nigeria. Therefore, this paper considers 3 cases of thyroid metastases in the femur of Igbo women. This appears to be uncommon as regards worldwide experiences.
