#3074 Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma and DIPNECH: An Unexpected Association

Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a neuroendocrine tumour of the C-cells of thyroid gland. Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cells hyperplasia (DIPNECH) is a rare condition, thought to be primarily a neuroendocrine proliferative process which can develop into carcinoid tumours.

#2813 Clinical Presentation and Prognosis of Patients with Medullary Thyroid Cancer

Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare type of tumor that originates from parafollicular C-cells and accounts for 3–4% of all malignant thyroid neoplasms. MTC presents as sporadic (75–80%) or inherited tumors (20–25%). Hereditary MTC is part of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2).

#2732 Prostate Metastasis of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma in a Young Patient with MEN2B Syndrome

Introduction: Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 2B is associated with particularly early onset medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Metastatic MTC is the leading cause of early death in MEN2B. The usual sites of metastasis are neck, mediastinum, lung, liver, bone and brain.

#2201 Early Prognostic Factors in Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma

Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) prognosis has been related with several variables, being calcitonin doubling time one of the most important prognostic factor. However, it is not evaluable in the early postoperative period.
