This case report details a patient with thyroid cancer who exhibited unusual uptake of 131iodine in bilateral ovarian endometriosis cysts.

This paper reports a clinical case in which a patient with thyroid cancer showed unusual uptake of radioactive iodine (131I) in bilateral ovarian endometriosis cysts during post-therapy or follow-up imaging. The authors describe the imaging finding of 131I uptake in the ovarian cysts, despite the context of thyroid cancer surveillance. The main limitation is that it is a single-case report, so it cannot establish how common or generalizable this phenomenon is. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically documents bilateral ovarian endometriosis cysts exhibiting unusual 131I uptake in the setting of thyroid cancer follow-up.
