Neck X-ray radiography showed a calcified left lobe with significant tracheal deviation to the opposite side (Figures 2 and 3).
Total thyroidectomy specimen with the large hard calcified left lobe (arrow B) and nodular right lobe (arrow A) is shown. Two confluent nodules were seen in the subplatysmal (arrow C) and subcutaneous (arrow D) tissue planes extending through the deep fascia to the calcified left lobe.
