Chemotherapy In Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma Cases: Case Report

Abstract

Medullary thyroid carcinomas (MTC) constitute 5-10 % of all thyroid cancers. Total thyroidectomy and lymph node dissection are the proposed treatment options, while external radiotherapy, radionuclide treatment and chemotherapy are reported to be useful for palliative purposes. Noncurative chemotherapy regimens are generally used in progressive medullary thyroid carcinoma cases. We tried to evaluate the role of chemotherapy in the treatment of MTK using our chemotherapy results obtained from two different patients, with the diagnosis of sporadic MTK and MEN 2B MTK, to whom we had to use chemotherapy due to the rapid progression of their diseases.
