Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Prophylactic thyroidectomy has been encouraged for children with REarranged during Transfection (RET) germline mutations to prevent the onset, persistence, or recurrence of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). The American Thyroid Association (ATA) recently published guidelines on the timing of prophylactic thyroidectomy. Our aim here was to seek information on the optimal timing of surgery for carriers of...
