Abstract
We describe five cases of lymphoma of the thyroid presenting with obstructive symptoms and show some of the associated computed tomographic findings. It is important to consider the diagnosis of thyroid lymphoma when treating patients with obstructive symptoms secondary to an anterior cervical mass, since this disease can be managed nonoperatively.
