We suggest the surgical approach to be driven by the medullary component.AbstractPatient underwent total thyroidectomy with central compartment lymph node dissection. Histological examination revealed a simultaneous multifocal papillary thyroid carcinoma and mixed medullary‐papillary carcinoma. He was disease‐free at 1‐year‐follow‐up.
