摘要
Follicular thyroid carcinoma is a well-differentiated thyroid neoplasm that is classified into widely invasive or minimally invasive carcinoma. Vascular invasion is often characteristic of follicular thyroid carcinoma. There is an estimated 6-20% incidence of distance metastasis with the bone being the most common followed by the lungs and then the lymph nodes. Metastatic spread to the skull base is rare. This case report will cover a patient who presented with follicular thyroid carcinoma and cranial neuropathy and was found to have metastasis to the skull base.
