Pathology Case Study: An 80-Year-Old Female with a Neck Mass

This is an ear nose & throat case study presented by the University of Pittsburgh Department of Pathology in which an 80-year-old female has insular carcinoma of the thyroid (i.e. a neck mass). Visitors are given both the microscopic and gross descriptions, including images, and are given the opportunity to diagnose the patient. This is an excellent resource for students in the health sciences to familiarize themselves with using patient history and laboratory results to diagnose. It is also a helpful site for educators to use to introduce or test student learning in ear, nose, and throat medicine.
