case_images: IU/mL (normal reference value, 34). Imaging studies demonstrated multinodularity (Ultrasound [US]) (Figure 1(a)), discrete thyroid growth (Figure 1(b)) and the thyroid fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy corroborated PTC Bethesda Class V (Figure 2).

case_images: Diagram of the FOXE1 region marking some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reported. The 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTR) are marked in a blue box, the FOXE1 gene exon is marked in an orange box, the forkhead region is marked in a red box, and the SNPs present in our patient are marked in italic.

case_images: Based on the contribution of FOXE1 mutations and SNPs variants (Figure 3) in the development of the CL, HT, and PC, we sequenced the exon 1 of this gene (coding region and 3'UTR) in order to identify mutations or SNPs potentially associated with the patient's diseases.
