Protocol for the development of a global core outcome set for the surgical treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer: a literature review and international Delphi survey.

Introduction: There is a lack of consensus on the optimal surgical strategy for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), partly due to inconsistent reporting of outcomes. This limits the ability to compare study results, hindering the ability to draw conclusions regarding novel treatment strategies. The development of a core outcome set (COS) reduces heterogeneity in the selection and reporting of clinical trial outcomes.

Trends in the Incidence, Organization of Care, and Surgical Treatment of Medullary Thyroid Cancer: A Population-Based Study.

Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare cancer with variable disease course. To enable optimal care, centralization and consensus guidelines are essential. This study describes trends in the incidence, organization of care, surgical treatment, and outcomes of MTC over 30 years in the Netherlands.

Phenolization of the sinus tract in recurrent sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease: long-term results of a prospective cohort study.

Aim: In recent years, the paradigm for the treatment of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease (SPSD) has shifted from surgical excision toward more minimally invasive techniques. Although extensive research has been conducted on the minimal invasive phenolization technique for primary SPSD, literature in recurrent SPSD is lacking. The purpose of this study was to report the long-term outcomes of the phenolization technique for recurrent SPSD.
