Abstract
Primary salivary gland-like malignancies in the thyroid are rare. For this reason, both their diagnosis and treatment pose challenges. This report presents a unique case of primary thyroid salivary gland-like carcinoma diagnosed in a 68-year-old male patient. Despite the patient undergoing surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy, the disease progressed rapidly. The clinical, morphological, and immunohistochemical features of this rare entity are described.
