| Popis: | Incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer has increased in the last two decades. This type of cancer is now being diagnosed at an earlier stage. Treatment strategy has been modified. Aims: The goals of this study were to analyze the outcome of differentiated thyroid cancer after initial treatment (surgery and radioiodine ablation) in patients evaluated and followed up in a single centre between l999 and 2009, to compare these results with others as well as to monitor the adoption of international recommendation. 107 patients having T1-T2 differentiated thyroid cancer were studied. Mean follow-up time was 63 months. Results: After surgery patients were prepared using thyroid hormone withdrawal or recombinant human thyrotropin, then 1.1-3.7 GBq 131-iodine was administered. First year evaluation consisted of ultrasound as well as serum thyrotropin and thyroglobulin (plus thyroglobulin antibody) determinations. Ablation success rate was 83% and the five year survival was 100%. There was not any cancer specific death. Conclusion: In the future somewhat more radical surgery and less remnant ablation is needed with unified follow-up protocol. Orv. Hetil., 2011, 152, 1731–1738. |
