- * A systematic review of existing literature, incorporating 62 studies, evaluated diagnostic tools, imaging techniques, molecular markers, and treatment options for PDTC, revealing significant variance in diagnostic criteria and treatment recommendations.
- * The study found prevalent molecular markers, such as TERT (41%), BRAF (28%), and P53 (25%), while highlighting that surgical treatment is advised for early-stage PDTC, although opinions are divided on other treatment methods, with a notable case fatality rate of up to 31%.
Hürthle cell carcinoma (HCC) of the thyroid gland generally has a more aggressive clinical course than other differentiated thyroid cancers (DTCs), and it is associated with a higher rate of distant metastases. In this case report, we highlight the importance of tyrosine kinase inhibitors as a management strategy for unresectable DTCs. Surgical management is challenging if the cancer is locally advanced and invades major neck structures with an increased risk of recurrence.
