Abstrakt: Key Clinical Message Systemic treatment of Medullary thyroid carcinoma ( MTC) is currently limited to the use of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is not routinely recommended in the earlier lines of treatment due to the lack of efficacy. We describe a patient with locally advanced MTC who had an uncommon response to cisplatin and etoposide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
