A follicular carcinoma of the thyroid with extensive mucin production was found in a 54‐year‐old woman. The primary nature of this rare neoplasm of the thyroid gland is supported by the presence of both colloid and mucin‐producing follicles. Ultrastructural features confirm the secretion of colloid and mucin in the same neoplastic thyroid cells.
