Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the role of pretherapy MRI in predicting outcomes in carotid body tumors and propose a grading system for high- and low-risk characteristics.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective observational study of 44 patients with 51 lesions was carried out from year 2005 to 2020. MR images were reviewed for characteristics of carotid body tumor, and a score was given that was correlated with intra- and postoperative findings.
Article Synopsis
- Thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) is a common thyroid developmental anomaly, found primarily in the midline of the neck, with an incidence of about 7% and a low malignancy rate of 1%.
- The study reviewed 86 TGDC cases over a decade, identifying 22 with papillary carcinoma, aiming to determine if ultrasound can accurately predict malignancy in these cysts.
- Results indicated that malignant TGDCs often exhibited specific ultrasound features such as irregular margins and solid-cystic composition, leading to the proposal of a TGC-TIRADS classification for assessing malignancy risk.
Papillary microcarcinoma (PMC) is defined as papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) measuring ≤1 cm, irrespective of the presence or absence of the high-risk features. PMCs without any high-risk features referred to as the low-risk PMCs are generally indolent, and most of them remain latent without progression or with very slow progression. Active surveillance (observation without immediate surgery) could identify the small minority of PMCs that progress and rescue surgery for these PMCs should be effective resulting in no influence on the patients' prognosis than performing immediate surgery which might result in more harm than good due to associated morbidity.

Methods: Twenty-five patients with squamous cell cancers of oral cavity underwent CECT and CTP. Two radiologists evaluated CECT and CTP parameters independently.
