RENAL MEDULLARY CARCINOMA

Journal of Urology, 1998
Renal medullary carcinoma is a rare and extremely aggressive neoplasm that almost always develops in young patients with sickle cell trait. To our knowledge all cases to date have been metastatic at surgical resection. Pathological examination reveals an aggressive tumor mainly involving the renal medulla with a varied morphology.

Medullary thyroid carcinoma

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. MTCs produce calcitonin, the measurement of which can indicate the presence of tumors in people who are at risk and the ...

When is medullary thyroid carcinoma “medullary thyroid carcinoma”?

World Journal of Surgery, 1986
AbstractMedullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is thought to develop from the parafollicular or C cells within the thyroid gland and, therefore, should not take up radioactive iodine. Recently, however,131I uptake has been reported in metastases of “medullary carcinoma” and, consequently, some authors have suggested that these tumors can be treated with ...

Nonfamilial medullary thyroid carcinoma

The American Journal of Surgery, 1980
Abstract On the basis of this report and the current literature, we conclude that the familial type of medullary thyroid carcinoma can be diagnosed early using basal and poststimulation levels of calcitonin. However, most of the patients with sporadic disease present with a neck mass later in life.

FAMILIAL MEDULLARY THYROID CARCINOMA

The Lancet, 1978
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (M.C.T.) is a tumour of the calcitonin-secreting cells of the thyroid gland; it affects both lobes, has a variable malignant potential, and is often familial. Despite the availability of diagnostic plasma-calcitonin immunoassays, the condition is rarely considered in the initial assessment of a patient with a thyroid mass so

Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma: Imaging

2015
Imaging plays an important role in early detection and staging of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) as well as in follow-up to localize early recurrence. MTC is a rare, calcitonin-secreting thyroid malignancy often diagnosed by ultrasound and calcitonin screening as part of the routine workup for any thyroid nodule.

Medullary Carcinoma and Pheochromocytoma

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978
To the Editor.— In the article by Ram et al (239:2155, 1978) it is suggested that medullary carcinoma is the only histologic variety of malignant thyroid tumor that is associated with pheochromocytoma. Occult sclerosing papillary carcinoma has been reported in two patients with pheochromocytoma.
