In a group of 94 patients with a histologically verified medullary thyroid carcinoma were 59 patients with the sporadic form and 35 patients with the familial form. After radical surgery and subsequent actinotherapy in all patients the values of immunoreactive calcitonin were monitored along with the sonographic examination. In all with calcified thyroid residues confirmed on sonography, or when metastases were detected in the liver, elevated or high levels of immunoreactive calcitonin were found. The authors emphasize the importance of this examination for the early detection of relapses of medullary thyroid carcinoma.
在一组94例经组织学证实为甲状腺髓样癌的患者中，59例为散发性，35例为家族性。所有患者接受根治性手术后进行后续放疗，并同时监测免疫反应性降钙素值及超声检查。在所有超声检查证实有甲状腺残留钙化或在肝脏发现转移灶的患者中，均发现免疫反应性降钙素水平升高或极高。作者强调了该项检查对早期发现甲状腺髓样癌复发的重要性。
