Introduction  

BRAF mutations and RET or NTRK1 rearrangements were identified as causing events that drive the malignant transformation of the thyroid follicular cell. The impact of these alterations on the course of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is still unsettled.  相似文献

Background  

The recent prevalence of ultrasonography (US) has facilitated the early detection and qualitative evaluation of thyroid nodules. Furthermore, novel technical developments are extending the application range of US for other thyroid diseases.  相似文献

Introduction  

Certain surgeon-performed ultrasound (SUS) features may predict differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The purpose of this study was to determine the SUS characteristics that are strongly associated with DTC in patients with solitary thyroid nodules.  相似文献

Introduction and Design  

Endocrine pathologists, surgeons, and oncologists who manage patients with thyroid carcinomas confront many critical dilemmas. Controversies surrounding diagnostic criteria that distinguish benign from malignant thyroid follicular lesions have been brought to the attention of this community. In this article, we confront another controversy, the definition of a thyroid “capsule” to clarify what constitutes extrathyroidal extension (ETE) and its clinical significance in the management of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinomas.  相似文献

Background  

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the clinicopathologic characteristics and short-term outcomes of papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) located in the isthmus compared to tumors located in other thyroid regions, and to use those findings to establish a surgical strategy for treating these tumors.  相似文献

Background  

Most research reporting the management of advanced thyroid cancer focuses on major aerodigestive system or vessel involvement. In the present study, we investigated patients with locally advanced thyroid cancers who presented with malignant skin infiltration. The term fungating thyroid cancer (fTC) has been used to describe such a condition.  相似文献

Background  

This study was designed to investigate the role of BRAFV600E mutation status in cytology specimens and ultrasonography (US) when planning surgery for thyroid nodules with cytologic results suspicious for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).  相似文献

Background  

An issue that has been overlooked in medical literature concerns the prevalence and topographic relationships of the middle thyroid vein (MTV), which have been studied, with a prospective approach, in patients with various thyroid diseases.  相似文献

Background  

Binding of the lectin Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA) has been shown to be associated with poor prognosis in many human cancers, but not in thyroid cancer. The aims of the present study were to assess alteration in cellular glycosylation, detected by HPA binding, in thyroid tumors; to determine if such altered glycosylation carries any prognostic significance; and to analyze qualitative and quantitative differences of HPA-binding glycoproteins in various thyroid tumors.  相似文献

Background  

It has been proposed that the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer is due to increasing detection.  相似文献

Background  

Pediatric patients present with thyroid nodules less often than adults, but the rate of malignancy is much higher. This study was designed to determine the ability of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNA) to diagnose accurately and facilitate management of thyroid neoplasms in pediatric patients.  相似文献

Background  

Few studies have recently showed functional and morphological changes of the thyroid gland in relation to obesity. To our knowledge, no data are available about the prevalence of thyroid nodules in female obese patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of thyroid nodules in morbidly obese women.  相似文献

Background  

Differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules is important for providing appropriate treatment. In the present study we examined the clinical usefulness of ultrasound in examining calcification patterns in thyroid nodules, and thus predict malignancy.  相似文献

Purpose  

In 2004, a Diagnosis Related Groups (DRG)-based hospital reimbursement system became mandatory in Germany. The aim of this study was to provide nationwide data on the surgery of thyroid cancer by analyzing DRG statistics of the years 2005 and 2006.  相似文献

Background  

Ki-67 is a useful tool for evaluating cell proliferative activity in various tumors. Although the utility of Ki-67 labeling index (LI) to diagnose thyroid neoplasms has been investigated, little is known regarding the relationship between Ki-67 LI and the biological behavior of papillary thyroid carcinoma. In this study, we examined Ki-67 in 371 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma to elucidate this issue.  相似文献

Purpose  

Recent recommendations suggest that total thyroidectomy (TT) is the surgical management of choice for differentiated thyroid cancer in children. The objective of this study is to assess trends in extent of surgical resection for differentiated thyroid cancer in children over the past two decades and to identify patient, tumor or hospital factors associated with use of TT.  相似文献

Background  

Ultrasound (US)-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is an accurate, reliable, and simple procedure to perform, and it is nowadays accepted as a standard diagnostic method for the differential diagnosis of thyroid nodules. However, a major limitation of US-FNAB is indeterminate cytology results at a thyroid nodule. This study investigated the clinical and US characteristics that predict malignancy, as well as the role of intraoperative frozen sections (FS) in the treatment of thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology.  相似文献

Background  

Minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopic appendectomy or minimally invasive thyroid surgery, are thought to produce better cosmetic results. However, cosmesis in thyroid surgery was rarely investigated using a standardized approach. The objectives of this study were to evaluate body image and cosmesis in patients who had either minimally invasive (MI) or conventional open (CO) thyroid surgery.  相似文献
