Abstract excerpt
Since germline mutations in the RET proto-oncogene (RET) predisposing to tumor development in Familial Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (FMTC), Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN 2A), and Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN 2B) were reported, it has become possible to identify gene carrie...
