Abstract

Development of malignant lymphoma in Hashimoto's thyroiditis is well documented. A case of tracheal invasion by a lymphoma which accompanied Hashimoto's disease is described. The clinical and diagnostic difficulties which were encountered are presented. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings which have not been reported previously are outlined.
