ΥΠΟΚΛΙΝΙΚΟ («ΚΡΥΦΟ») ΚΑΡΚΙΝΩΜΑ ΤΟΥ ΘΥΡΕΟΕΙΔΟΥΣ
Περίληψη
Το «κρυφό» καρκίνωμα του θυρεοειδούς είναι ένας μικρός σε μέγεθος (<10mm), μη ανιχνεύσιμος κλινικώς όγκος συνήθως θηλώδους ιστολογικού τύπου. Ανακαλύπτεται τυχαία σε χειρουργικά παρασκευάσματα του θυρεοειδούς ή σε νεκροτομικό υλικό . Δίνει λεμφογενείς και σπανιότερα αιματογενείς μεταστάσεις. Δεν φαίνεται να έχει ιδιαίτερη προτίμηση όσον αφορά το φύλο και την ηλικία και γενικώς είναι καλής πρόγνωσης.Αναφορές
