Metastatic tumors in the thyroid gland are not often diagnosed in the clinical setting, but most are identified during autopsies. Of those, uterine corpus carcinoma metastatic to the thyroid gland is a particularly rare form of metastasis. We report a case of thyroid metastasis from primary uterine corpus adenocarcinoma diagnosed by histopathological findings of the surgical specimen. The patient was a 74-year-old woman who had a past history of total hysterectomy with adnexectomy for uterine corpus cancer. Diagnosed as thyroid papillary adenocarcinoma by fine-needle aspiration biopsy, she was referred to our hospital and underwent total thyroidectomy and bilateral selective radical neck dissection. Histopathological examination revealed adenocarcinoma of unknown primary origin. However, since its histopathological features were remarkably similar to those of uterine corpus adenocarcinoma, we made a diagnosis of uterine corpus adenocarcinoma metastasis to the thyroid gland.
