Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma is a rare cancer. Unlike other thyroid cancers,
it is rapidly progressive and almost fatal. As it is usually locally advanced at the time
of diagnosis with concomitant pulmonary metastasis in half of the cases. Detailed
physical examination can be useful for detecting this disease at early stage.
