Abstract
The thyroid gland is an unusual location for solitary fibrous tumours. We report a case of a 42Â year old male with a cytological diagnosis of follicular proliferation. Macroscopically the lesion corresponded to an encapsulated nodule of 2.5Â cm. Histologically, it showed a proliferation of spindle cells encompassing thyroid follicles, positive for vimentin, CD34 and BCL2. The ultrastructural study confirmed the myofibroblastic nature of the proliferative cells.
