Metastasis to the thyroid is a rare clinical phenomenon, and sometimes a diagnosis of STT is difficult; so, we need to pay more attention to it. While prognosis appears to be related to surgery or some characteristics of metastatic spread, these data suggest it is more complex. Tumor biology is king; in fact, prognosis was mainly related to the biological behavior of the primary tumor. We cannot only opt for surgery; thus, case selection is important, and the treatment strategy for STT patients should be determined individually according to their specific biological behaviors.
