Indication and timing of thyroid surgery for patients with hereditary medullary thyroid cancer syndromes.

Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network : JNCCN - 1 Feb 2006

Ogilvie Jennifer B, Kebebew Electron

Abstract excerpt

Hereditary medullary thyroid cancer syndromes comprise familial medullary thyroid cancer (FMTC) and multiple endocrine neoplasia types 2A and 2B. Hereditary medullary thyroid cancers have an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance and are caused by activating germline point mutations in the RET proto-oncogene. Evaluation of the onset, extent, and progression of hereditary medullary thyroid cancer associated...
