A case of calcified pulmonary metastases from medullary carcinoma of the thyroid is reported. This uncommon cause of multiple calcified pulmonary nodules is demonstrated on a computerized tomography (CT) scan and proven by pathology.
A 4-month-old boy with polydactyly and bifid epiglottis was found to have a large sellar and suprasellar mass. When the diagnosis of Pallister-Hall syndrome was made, conservative management was elected. When the patient was 2 years old, the tumor had grown proportionally with the patient, and he was developing appropriately. Although rare, this entity is important to recognize not only for clinical diagnosis but also for appropriate management and genetic counseling.
