Differentiated Thyroid carcinoma (DTC) with distant skeletal metastases is associated with a very poor prognosis and are unfortunately resistant to radioiodine therapy (RIT). Surgical removal of the metastases in such selected cases is a beneficial adjunct to RIT. We report two cases of DTC with sternal metastases whom we successfully managed with surgical resection of the sternal lesion with reconstruction of the chest wall defect using titanium mesh implant and myocutaneous flap.
伴有远处骨骼转移的分化型甲状腺癌(DTC)预后极差,且不幸的是对放射性碘治疗(RIT)耐药。在这类特定病例中,手术切除转移灶是RIT的有益辅助手段。我们报告了两例伴有胸骨转移的DTC病例,我们通过手术切除胸骨病变,并使用钛网植入物和肌皮瓣重建胸壁缺损,成功地对其进行了治疗。
