Rol de la dosificación de tiroglobulina en el líquido de lavado de la punción por aguja fina para el diagnóstico de metástasis ganglionares en el seguimiento de cáncer de tiroides en el Hospital de Clínicas de Montevideo, Uruguay

Rev. méd. Urug; 38 (3), 2022
La recurrencia del cáncer diferenciado de tiroides (CDT) a nivel del cuello ocurre en 5%-20% de los casos. El estudio citológico mediante punción de adenopatías ha sido utilizado para confirmar los hallazgos ecográficos sospechosos de malignidad, su sensibilidad varía entre 75%-85%. El objetivo del...

Análisis de tiroglobulina preablativa y cáncer diferenciado de tiroides preoperatorio

Rev. med. Chile; 150 (7), 2022
BACKGROUND: The measurement of plasma thyroglobulin (Tg) is widely used in the monitoring of differentiated thyroid cancer (CDT). In recent years, its value as a prognostic marker prior to ablation with radioiodine has increased, demonstrating its high negative predictive value. Recent studies indicate t...

Pregnancy has no significant impact on the prognosis of differentiated thyroid cancer

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the impact of pregnancy on differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTC) behavior Subjects and methods: Retrospective study of patients diagnosed with DTC before or during pregnancy and treated with standard therapy. In women diagnosed with DTC before pregnancy, we evaluated t...

Análise crítica dos indicadores do estado nutricional de iodo em indivíduos e populações: uma revisão sistemática

Ciênc. Saúde Colet. (Impr.); 26 (supl.3), 2021

A busca pelos artigos ocorreu em janeiro de 2019, nas bases Pubmed, Scopus e LILACS, utilizando a combinação "indicadores AND esta...

Evolución del cáncer papilar de tiroides en acromegalia: serie de casos

Oncología (Guayaquil); 31 (2), 2021
Introducción: La acromegalia se produce por un adenoma hipofisario somatotropo, que secreta una excesiva producción de GH e IGF1, se relaciona con mayor riesgo de tumores malignos, no guardando asociación con un patrón especifico de presentación y el objetivo de este estudio es analizar la evoluci...

Thyroglobulin/thyrotropin ratio for predicting long-term response in differentiated thyroid carcinoma: a retrospective study

ABSTRACT Objective: Thyrotropin-stimulated thyroglobulin (STg) after total thyroidectomy is a prognosis marker for differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). As Tg level is influenced by thyrotropin (TSH), perhaps the STg/TSH ratio is also a prognosis marker for these tumours. We aimed to compare STg/TSH r...

Autoinmunidad tiroidea en mujeres con Síndrome de Ovario Poliquístico
Thyroid autoimmunity in women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Rev. cuba. endocrinol; 31 (3), 2020
Introducción: Las bases fisiopatológicas del Síndrome de ovario poliquístico pueden predisponer a mayor riesgo de autoinmunidad a las mujeres que tienen esta condición y existen evidencias, aunque escasas, de mayor prevalencia de autoinmunidad tiroidea en ellas. Objetivos: Determinar la frecuenci...

Intermediate-risk thyroid carcinoma: indicators of a poor prognosis

ABSTRACT Objective: The intermediate-risk (IR) category includes tumors with different degrees of aggression. We aimed to identify the risk factors associated with unfavorable response to initial treatment and compare the effect of low/high radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. Subjects and methods: A tota...

Warthin-like and classic papillary thyroid cancer have similar clinical presentation and prognosis

ABSTRACT Objective Warthin-like papillary thyroid cancer (WL-PTC) is an uncommon variant of PTC, usually associated with lymphocytic thyroiditis. Scarce evidence suggests that WL-PTC has similar clinical presentation to classic PTC (C-PTC), with no studies comparing risks of recurrence and response to ...

A cutoff thyroglobulin value suggestive of distant metastases in differentiated thyroid cancer patients

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (11), 2020
Serum thyroglobulin is used as part of the early postoperative assessment of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) since there is a clear relationship between an increased risk of recurrence and persistent disease after initial treatment and high postoperative stimulated thyroglobulin (ps-Tg) values. Thus,...
