Background
Thyroid metastases are extremely rare, with an incidence of 1-3% according to different data. Colon cancer is the second most common tumor that metastasizes to this organ.

We report a case of a long-standing colon cancer with an atypical metastatic pattern and the appearance of a thyroid metastases. In addition, we highlight the importance of multidisciplinary management of this pathology and the emerging need to establish next generation sequencing panels for better molecular characterization.
