Abstract

Familial Medullary Thyroid Cancer (FMTC) is a rare cancer of thyroid. FMTC derived from parafollicular C cells and there is a known relationship between FMTC and RET protooncogene mutations. Genetic testing is considered the standard of care for all first-degree relatives of patients with newly diagnosed MTC and surgery should be performed. We report here four sisters affected by FMTC.

Özet

Ailesel medüller tiroid kanseri (FMTK) nadir görülen bir kanserdir. Parafoliküler C hücre hiperplazisi ve RET protoonkogeninin mutasyonu FMTKde rol oynamaktadır. Yeni FMTK tanısı alan hastaların 1. derece yakınlarına tarama yapılmalıdır ve bunlardan MTK tespit edilenlere cerrahi uygulanmalıdır. Çalışmamızda MTK tanısı konulmuş 4 kız kardeş ve bunların takipleri ile birlikte ailesel medüller tiroid karsinomu irdelenmiştir.
