Follicular carcinoma of the thyroid presenting with hematuria: a case report.
A 59-year-old woman presented with hematuria in which a subsequent workup showed follicular carcinoma of the thyroid metastatic to the urinary bladder. Soft tissue metastasis from such a carcinoma is seen most commonly in the lungs and occasionally in the liver and kidneys. This case illustrates that follicular carcinoma of the thyroid may have a variable presentation, including hematuria.
