The prevalence of post-thyroidectomy chronic asthenia: a prospective cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Purpose: Chronic asthenia (CA) is complained by some patients that have undergone thyroid surgery. We evaluate its impact in patients undergoing unilateral or bilateral thyroidectomy, the trend during a 1-year follow-up, and the possible risk factors ...

Muscle tendon elongation with bovine pericardium (Tutopatch®) in patients with Graves’ orbitopathy; a prospective, observational, multicentre study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patients with severe ocular motility restriction and/or large angle strabismus due to Graves' orbitopathy (GO) cannot be adequately addressed with conventional strabismus surgery using large muscle recessions. Muscle tendon elongation surgery, using a spacer of bovine pericardium (Tutopatch®) has emerged as a valuable alternative.

Exploring tear fluid biomarkers and the ocular surface in thyroid eye disease

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To examine ocular surface changes and inflammatory tear fluid biomarkers in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). Methods We included 106 Graves' disease (GD) patients (36 without TED, 32 with active and 38 with inactive TED) and 106 age‐ and sex‐matched healthy subjects for ophthalmological evaluation, including ocular surface ...

Surgical Outcomes Following Neoadjuvant‐Targeted Therapy for Advanced Differentiated Thyroid Cancer—Real‐World Data

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) is typically managed surgically with favourable outcomes. However, surgery may have dire consequences when the tumour invades critical structures. Neoadjuvant therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has emerged as a potential strategy to improve resectability and reduce morbidity in ...

Identification of BCL2L11 as a Candidate Gene for Hereditary Predisposition to Non‐Medullary Thyroid Cancer Using Familial Whole‐Exome‐Sequencing

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Whole‐exome sequencing of five families with non‐medullary thyroid cancer revealed three candidate genes. Functional analyses confirmed BCL2L11 as a strong candidate gene for hereditary predisposition to non‐medullary thyroid cancer. ABSTRACT Familial non‐medullary thyroid cancer, defined as two or more affected first‐degree relatives, accounts for 3 ...
