The HABP2 G534E polymorphism does not increase nonmedullary thyroid cancer risk in Hispanics. [PDF]

, 2016
Familial nonmedullary thyroid cancer (NMTC) has not been clearly linked to causal germline variants, despite the large role that genetic factors play in risk. Recently, HABP2 G534E (rs7080536A) has been implicated as a causal variant in NMTC.

A Benign Medullary Thyroid Cancer [PDF]

Cureus, 2022
Metastatic dissemination occurs in up to 90% of patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) greater than 4 cm in diameter, and elevated calcitonin levels of more than 500 pg/ml preoperatively have been shown to predict the failure to achieve biochemical remission. Herein, we present a patient with a large tumor and extremely elevated calcitonin level,

Preventive Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy by Vestibular Approach in 6-Year-Old Patient with the High-Risk RET C634R Germline Mutation

Case Reports in Oncology, 2023
Aggressiveness and age of manifestation of medullary thyroid cancer depend on the risk level of germline RET mutations. For high-risk mutations, preventive thyroidectomy is recommended at young age.

Evaluation of Thyroid Nodules: Incidence and Distribution of Thyroid Cancer

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
Thyroid nodules are a common problem in clinical practice, they are usually benign; only about 5% of these nodules harbor malignancy. It is important to identify those that are likely to be malignant. The majority of thyroid cancers are papillary cancers,
