Abstract

Amaç: Diferansiye tiroid kanseri (DTC) insidansı son yıllarda hızla artmaktadır. Tanı anındaki hasta yaşı, tiroid kanseri sağkalımı için iyi bir prognostik faktördür. DTC, evreleme sisteminin bir parçası olarak yaşı içeren tek malignitedir. Amerikan Ortak Kanser Komitesi (AJCC) evreleme sistemi şu anda kesim noktası olarak 55 yaşı kullanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, serimizdeki <55 ve ≥55 yaş hastalarda DTC'nin klinikopatolojik özelliklerini karşılaştırmayı amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Toplamda DTC'li 920 hasta retrospektif olarak incelendi. <55 ve ≥55 yaş hastalarda tiroid fonksiyonları, malign nodüllerin ultrasonografik özellikleri, sitolojik ve histopatolojik bulgular, nüks ve persistans oranları karşılaştırıldı.
Bulgular: Çalışmamızda <55 yaş grubunda 605 (%65.76) hasta ve ≥55 yaş grubunda 315 (%34.24) hasta vardı. Tüm kanser türlerinin <55 yaş hastalarda %95.79'u ve ≥55 yaş hastalarda %94.46'sı papiller tiroid kanseri (PTC) idi (p=0.269). Ortalama tümör çapı <55 yaş hastalarda 10,53±10,72 mm ve >55 yaş hastalarda 12,65±12,72 mm idi (p=0,009). <55 yaş hastaların %8,42'sinde ve ≥55 yaş hastaların %12,79'unda ekstratiroidal yayılım (ETE) saptandı (p=0.011). <55 yaş hastaların %19.11'inde ve ≥55 yaş hastaların %23.24'ünde kapsüler invazyon saptandı (p=0.032). <55 yaş hastalarda kronik lenfositik tiroidit oranı ≥55 yaş hastalara göre daha yüksekti (p<0,001). Lenfatik invazyon, vasküler invazyon, lenf nodu metastazı, uzak metastaz, persistans ve rekürrens oranları benzerdi.
Sonuç: DTC'li ≥55 yaş hastalarda, <55 yaşındaki hastalara kıyasla daha büyük tümörler, daha fazla ekstratiroidal yayılım ve daha fazla kapsüler invazyon mevcuttur.

Comparison of Clinicopathological Features in Differentiated Thyroid Carcinomas at 55 Age Cut-Off Point: A Single Center Experience

Abstract

Objectives: The incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) has been increasing rapidly in recent years. Patient age at diagnosis is a good prognostic factor for thyroid cancer. DTC is the only malignancy that includes age as part of its staging system. The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system currently uses 55 years of age as the cutoff point. In this study, we aimed to compare the clinicopathological features of DTC in patients <55 and ≥55 years old in our series.
Materials and Methods: In total, 920 patients with DTC were retrospectively reviewed. Thyroid functions, ultrasonographic features of malignant nodules, cytological and histopathological findings, and recurrence and persistence rates were compared in patients <55 and ≥ 55 years old.
Results: There were 605 (65.76%) patients <55 years old and 315 (34.24%) patients ≥55 years old. Of all cancer types, 95.79% in <55 years old patients and 94.46% in ≥55 years old were papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) (p = 0.269). The mean tumor diameter was 10.53±10.72 mm in patients <55 years old and 12.65±12.72 mm in patients >55 years old (p=0.009). Extrathyroidal extension (ETE) was detected in 8.42% of <55 years old patients and 12.79% of patients ≥55 years old (p=0.011). Capsular invasion was detected in 19.11% of <55 years old patients and 23.24% of patients ≥55 years old (p=0.032). The rate of chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis in the <55 years old patients was higher than in the ≥55 years old patients (p<0.001). Lymphatic invasion, vascular invasion, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, persistence, and recurrence rates were similar.
Conclusion: DTC in patients ≥55 years old is associated with larger tumors, greater ETE, and greater capsular invasion compared to patients <55 years old.
