INTRODUCTION
THYROID CANCER
 Incidence : 1.2 to 2.6 per 100,000 (men) and
2.0 to 3.8 per 100,000 (women)
 >90% of tumors are differentiated thyroid
cancer
 Some prognostic scoring systems do not
differ between PTC and FTC
 PTC accounts for at least 70% of all DTC
 10% of patients would eventually die of the
disease and an even greater proportion would
face the morbidity of recurrences.
 A number of studies have identified various
clinicopathologic predictors for PTC and
devised risk-group stratification or staging
systems
 Age, gender, histological type, tumour size
and extrathyroidal invasion have been found
previously to be associated with a poor
clinical outcome
 The prognostic impact of regional lymph
node metastases is still a controversial issue
 Distant metastases is a recognized factor for
a poor prognosis
• There are conflicting thoughts over different
aspects of treatment of differentiated thyroid
cancer
• The lack of consensus stems due to the
absence of concrete data from randomized
controlled trials
• Surgery with or without radio-iodine therapy
forms the mainstay of treatment of
differentiated thyroid cancers
STAGING SYSTEMS
 Many scoring or staging systems have been
developed during the last two decades
 The most commonly used staging
classifications are AMES , AGES , MACIS ,
EORTC , and UICC-TNM

• There was no difference in the abilities of the
top five classifications (AGES, TNM, EORTC,
MACIS and AMES) to predict the prognosis
for patients with differentiated thyroid
carcinoma, and no statistically significant
superiority of any system over the TNM
classification was found

strongest prognostic factors in DTC,
therefore resulting in its use in most staging

 The diameter of the primary tumour is a
determinant (independent predictor) for
outcome in differentiated thyroid cancer.
However, the delineation between low-risk
and high-risk tumour size is unsettled.

SUMMARY
 A number of risk-group stratification have been
found useful at stratifying patients with
differentiated thyroid carcinoma into risk groups
 Significant risk factors were age, primary tumor
size, histology, grade, local tumor extension,
completeness of resection, and distant
metastasis.
 Aggressive surgical resection was recommended
for all gross disease in high risk and intermediate
risk patients. The standard treatment for high
risk patients are total thyroidectomy followed by
I131 ablation and TSH suppression with thyroxin.
 Well-differentiated thyroid cancer in low risk
patients has a favorable outcome and can be
safely treated with unilateral thyroidectomy
alone.
 Postoperatively, the patient’s operative and
pathology records should be studied to re-assess the
risk-group of the patients.
 Appropriate selection of surgical and adjuvant
treatment should therefore be used based on
prognostic factors and risk group stratification.
