Carcinoma of the Thyroid Gland
JAMA, 1949To the Editor:— InThe Journal, Oct. 22, 1960, there was an editorial on carcinoma of the thyroid gland based on a review of a text written by Lindsay. The contention of Lindsay that most carcinomas of the thyroid do not originate in preexisting benign nodules, is of course not original with the author, this hypothesis having been advanced for many ...

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2015
Surgery remains the most important effective treatment for differentiated (DTC) and medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). Radioactive iodine (RAI) is another important treatment but is reserved only for DTC whose disease captures RAI. Once patients fail primary therapy, observation is often recommended, as most DTC and MTC patients will have indolent disease.

Leiomyosarcoma of the thyroid gland
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2008The existence of primary thyroid sarcomas represents a contentious issue. Some authors believe that thyroid sarcomas are, in fact, anaplastic carcinomas with sarcomatous (spindle cell) features. From the standpoint of treatment and prognosis, the histogenesis of thyroid 'sarcomas' is academic, because these tumors, irrespective of the therapeutic ...

Paraganglioma of the thyroid gland
The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1980A case of a paraganglioma located within the thyroid gland is reported, and the light- and electron-microscopic features are described.

Radioassay and the thyroid gland
Metabolism, 1973Abstract In the thyroid field, as in all biochemistry and physiology, extension of knowledge often follows the discovery of a way to measure a previously non-quantifiable parameter. The beauty of competitive radioassays is that it is possible to design, on a microscale, the method for measuring almost any substance of biologic interest. The preceding

Hemiagenesis of the thyroid gland
The American Journal of Medicine, 1975Three patients with hemiagenesis of the typhoid gland are described. One was clinically euthyroid, whereas the other two were more unusual in that one had coincident Graves' disease with thyrotoxicosis, and one had primary myxodema. In all three cases diagnosis of hemiagenesis was established by the administration of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH ...

Although the prevalence of thyroid nodule is approximately 1% to 5% in the general adult population, 6% to 10% of older persons may have solitary nodules. Between 2% and 10% of thyroid nodules are noted to be carcinomatous. Approximately 1200 persons die of thyroid carcinoma each year in the United States alone; the incidence is much higher in women ...

Current Problems in Surgery, 1969
Summary Cancer of the thyroid gland is not frequently seen. Even though the majority of lesions are well differentiated and have a prolonged course, some persons do die of the disease. Since thyroidectomy is a very safe surgical procedure as far as mortality and morbidity are concerned, it does seem reasonable that selected nodular goiters that might
