• sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma
  9 November 2010

  Without calcitonin screening, sporadic MTC usually presents clinically as a thyroid nodule.
  In approximately two thirds of patients, lymph node metastases are present at the time of diagnosis, and curative surgery rarely can be achieved.
  About 45% of the detected MTCs were microscopic medullary thyroid carcinomas (microscopic MTC).
  Nodular involvement is seen in 33%.
  Prognosis
  Calcitonin levels return to normal in all cases without lymph node metastases, indicating potential curative (...)
