Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2007
Medullary thyroid carcinoma is a neuroendocrine tumor derived from the C cells of the thyroid gland and accounts for approximately 5% of all thyroid carcinomas. Approximately 30% of the cases are associated with an autosomal dominant syndrome called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, and the identification of these individuals is important because ...

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2003
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a neuroendocrine malignancy that occurs in hereditary (25%) and sporadic (75%) clinical settings. MTC is present in all patients with the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 syndromes.

Medullary Carcinoma of the Thyroid

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1983
Medullary cancer of the thyroid is rare but of unusual biologic interest. It originates in the thyroid parafollicular or C cells that are of neural crest origin and that secrete calcitonin. Calcitonin measurements, particularly after pentagastrim administration, are useful in detecting the tumor and following its progression.
