[Sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma with eosinophilia of thyroid gland].

Sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma with stromal eosinophilia of thyroid gland is represented less than 100 cases in the world literature. We present a rare case of sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinona with stromal eosinophilia in a 69-year-old woman who has been observed for multinodular goiter for more than 3 years. Cytological examination revealed a picture most of all corresponding to a malignant neoplasm (Bethesda V). The patient underwent a thyroidectomy. Pathomorphological examination revealed a neoplasm of mixed structure with foci of cribriform structures and squamous metaplasia with areas of keratinization. According to the IHC study, the expression of TTF-1, p63, cytokeratins 5/6 were positive, while there were no expression of thyroglobulin with its positive reaction in the thyroid tissue. Additional histochemical staining with Alcian blue revealed a positive reaction with a homogeneous acellular substance of the tumor. A comprehensive morphological study with the use of additional stains made it possible to accurately establish the diagnosis, which will determine the further tactics of managing the patient.
