Thyroid cancer in childhood

International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 1983
A rare case of a papillary thyroid cancer in a young boy is reported. At the age of 8 years a rapidly growing tumour of the right antero-lateral neck region was detected. Biopsy revealed a cervical lymph node metastasis of a papillary thyroid carcinoma. Any adequate therapy was rejected by the patient's father.

Genetics of Childhood Cancer

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002
In recent years, knowledge of the molecular genetics of childhood cancers has been increasing at an exponential rate. The study of the molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis has led to an understanding of the role that tumor suppressors, oncogenes, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair genes play in development of the disease.

Thyroid Cancer in Childhood

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1990
The incidence, clinical presentation, and types of thyroid cancers presenting in childhood are reviewed. The role of antecedent radiation in papillary and follicular thyroid cancers and genetics of medullary thyroid carcinoma are discussed. Unique aspects of therapy and prognosis for the pediatric patient with thyroid carcinoma are addressed as well as

The genetics of childhood cancer

European Journal of Cancer, 1994
INTRODUCTION OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE implicates a complex interaction of abnormal intraand extracellular genetic events in the development of cancer. Neoplasia is a dynamic multistep process that ultimately drives a normal cell to proceed towards malignant transformation. The number of steps, their chronological order and the nature of particular genetic

Curability of Childhood Cancer

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976
THE DIAGNOSIS of cancer in children has been accompanied by a fatalistic outlook in the past. The child with cancer and his family have been a favorite subject of the thanatologists, who equate it with a "terminal" status. However, advances in the evaluation and care of childhood cancer, resulting from basic and clinical cancer research, have led to ...
