In fact, metastases may be deemed so rare as to receive no regard at all. However, such occurrences are more frequent than is generally thought. Many different tumors from a wide variety of sites may spread to the thyroid gland. This study was undertaken to determine the incidence, cell type, and the source of thyroid secondaries in the population served
