Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Airway obstruction secondary to chyle leak is an exceptionally rare phenomenon. Here, we describe this complication in a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) undergoing consolidative surgery after BRAF-targeted therapy. METHODS: A 55-year-old man presented with a rapidly enlarging neck mass. Work-up was consistent with metastatic unresectable BRAFV600E-mutant ATC. After a remarkable...
