Inherited medullary microcarcinoma of the thyroid: a study of 11 cases.

The American journal of surgical pathology - 1 Jun 2000

Krueger J E, Maitra A, Albores-Saavedra J

Abstract excerpt

The authors report 11 patients with genetically determined medullary microcarcinomas. Nine patients were either children or adolescents and two patients were young adults. The youngest patient was 7 years old and the oldest was 34 years of age (mean age, 15.4 yrs). The preoperative diagnosis was based on family history and elevated serum calcitonin levels. In addition, six patients had RET protooncogene mutations...
