Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association - 1 Feb 2005

Rosenthal M Sara, Pierce Heather Hanson

Abstract excerpt

Familial medullary thyroid cancer (FMTC) is one of the few autosomal dominant cancers for which genetic testing provides a clear medical indication for prophylactic and/or curative therapy, and for which prophylactic thyroidectomy, followed by thyroid hormone replacement, presents a relatively low morbidity risk. Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a particularly aggressive type of thyroid cancer, and screening by...
