Thyroid is a versatile endocrine organ. Fine needle aspiration cytology is the famous technique which is safe, easy to perform, cost effective and more accurate in diagnosing benign and malignant thyroid lesions. Our case shows a rare presentation of numerous calcium oxalate crystals within the colloid in thyroid smear which indicates degenerative and atrophic changes in the follicles, and can also be seen in numerous other benign and systemic conditions which roots the underlying pathology and helps in treatment as well as stays as a unique rare finding.
