Abstract
Acromegaly is a rare disease presentation in the general population. The relationship between thyroid cancer and acromegaly may seem rare however there is evidence showing a higher incidence of thyroid cancer in acromegalic patients. It would be important to consider the potential for thyroid disease in these patients. We present an interesting case of a man with history of thyroid cancer and a new diagnosis of acromegaly.
