Nonfamilial medullary thyroid carcinoma
The American Journal of Surgery, 1980Abstract 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.

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 ...

FAMILIAL MEDULLARY THYROID CARCINOMA
The Lancet, 1978Medullary 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
2015Imaging 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 Thyroid Carcinoma in Children
2014Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) originates from thyroid parafollicular C cells, and it accounts for 5% of thyroid malignancies. MTC is sporadic in approximately 80% and hereditary in 20% of cases. When hereditary it can be associated with other benign endocrine neoplasias and/or typical nonendocrine diseases, thus configuring the multiple endocrine ...

Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) originates from parafollicular cells (C-cells) of the thyroid gland. Calcitonin is a hormone secreted by parafollicular cells. The exact role of calcitonin is not understood, but it modulates bone mineral turnover. Medullary carcinoma accounts for less than 5 % of all thyroid cancers and is a clinically heterogeneous ...

[Medullary thyroid carcinoma].
Annales d'endocrinologie, 2008Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is developed from thyroid C cells that secrete calcitonin (CT). MTC represents 5-10% of thyroid cancers with a 1-2% incidence in nodular thyroid diseases. Diagnosis is usually made by a solitary nodule often associated to nodal metastasis and confirmed by a high basal CT level which represents its biological marker ...

Pathology Case Reviews, 2006
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is currently defined as a malignant thyroid tumor with evidence of C-cell differentiation.1,2 While earlier reports had alluded to the existence of this tumor type, Robert Horn in 1951 reported a series of 7 cases of a thyroid cancer characterized by sharply defined rounded or ovoid compact cell groups of moderate size
