Article Synopsis
- * A total of 604 patients were included, with most having benign conditions like nodular goitre and Graves' disease, while a significant number were diagnosed with thyroid malignancies, predominantly papillary thyroid carcinoma.
- * Key findings included a low early postoperative nerve injury rate (4.9%), a 0.7% rate of persistent nerve injury, and early hypoparathyroidism linked to certain conditions, underlining the importance of careful monitoring during surgery.
Aim: Calcitonin (Ctn) measurement in patients with thyroid disease could potentially increase the detection rates of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) but remains a controversial issue. The aim of this study was to evaluate routine preoperative Ctn measurements.
Methods: All patients with thyroid surgery documented in the prospective StuDoQ|Thyroid registry between March 2017 and September 2020 were included.
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: changing trends of treatment strategies and associated overall survival.
Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol

Purpose: The prognosis of anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is poor. Despite various attempts to modify common treatment modalities, including surgery, external beam radiation (EBRT) and chemotherapy (CTX), no standardized treatment is yet established. This study aimed to analyze the changing trends of treatment concepts and associated overall survival (OS) over the last two decades.
