Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We report a case of familial medullary thyroid carcinoma in an 87-year-old woman, despite the patient having a high-risk codon 620 mutation. METHOD: Medline and PubMed were searched for cases and literature reviews relating to the following keywords: 'codon 620', 'medullary thyroid carcinoma', 'multiple endocrine neoplasia' and 'RET proto-oncogene'. RESULTS: We report the case of an 87-year-old woman...
