How to use molecular testing results to guide surgery: a surgeon's perspective.

Current opinion in oncology - 1 Jan 2014

Gomberawalla Ameer, Elaraj Dina M

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Multiple genetic mutations have been found to be associated with thyroid cancer, and molecular testing of thyroid nodule fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens has been proposed as an adjunct to the cytologic diagnosis. The purpose of this review is to examine how molecular testing of FNAs could be used to guide surgical decision-making. RECENT FINDINGS: B-type RAF kinase mutations in papillary...
