AI Article Synopsis
- Genetic inheritance is well established in medullary thyroid cancer, but not clearly proven for papillary or follicular thyroid neoplasms.
- Family clusters of non-medullary thyroid tumors do exist, indicating a potential genetic link that needs more research.
- These family clusters tend to behave differently and may need more aggressive treatment to improve recurrence rates and overall prognosis.
Article Abstract
Although genetical inheritance is an well established fact with medullary cancer of thyroid no such clear cut proof exist with papillary or follicular neoplasm of thyroid It's a fact that family clusters of non-medullary thyroid tumor exist, it requires more precise identification of genetical inheritance These clusters behave in a separate way and requires a more aggressive treatment for low recurrence rate and better prognosis.
