Clinical and Oncological Features of Children and Young Adults with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2A

7 Nov 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: RET genotype analysis allows identification of asymptomatic carriers at risk of developing medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). However, there is still controversy regarding the ideal timing and extent of prophylactic thyroidectomy due to the wide spectrum of clinical presentation. Surveillance of a large number of young patients is crucial to advance our understanding of the natural course of the...
