Abstract

Thyroid cancer is considered the most common form of endocrine malignancy that usually affects females in their fifth decade of life. Here, we report a case of a 25-year-Saudi female, who was diagnosed by biopsy as papillary carcinoma of the thyroid following total thyroidectomy. After the surgery, she suffered from severe hypocalcemia that necessitated ICU admission.
