Abstract

The authors report an extremely rare occurrence of a massive tumor thrombus involving right internal and external jugular veins extending into superior vena cava from a still rarer melanotic medullary carcinoma thyroid in the postoperative follow-up. The case was managed by hypofractionated intensity modulated radiotherapy technique with gratifying results.

Keywords: Hypofractionated radiotherapy; intensity modulated radiotherapy; melanotic medullary carcinoma thyroid; tumor thrombus
