Review of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A in children: therapeutic results of early thyroidectomy and prognostic value of codon analysis.

Pediatrics - 1 Feb 2003

Szinnai Gabor, Meier Christian, Komminoth Paul, Zumsteg Urs W

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was first to investigate whether early total thyroidectomy (ETT; 1-5 years of age) can prevent medullary thyroid carcinoma with persistent or recurrent disease (PRD) in pediatric patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN-2A) and second, to evaluate the strength of codon analysis in children with MEN-2A as prognostic parameter. METHODS: Case reports and review of the...
