Resumen

The incidence of Thyroid Cancer (TC) is increasing worldwide during the last decades. A link between TC and inflammation is well documented. A frequent association between Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC) and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis (HT) is known, but  the coexistence of HT and Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) is rare. We present a rare case of HT and Medullary Thyroid microCarcinoma (microMTC
