Objective To explore the progress of diagnosis and treatment for differentiated thyroid carcinoma （DTC） in pregnancy. Methods The literatures on studying the diagnosis and treatment of DTC in pregnancy were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. Results Radionuclide scanning and radioiodine （131I） administration during pregnancy were contraindicated. Surgery during the second trimester was considered safe. Monitoring of pregnancy must be strict during each trimester if surgery was delayed until after delivery. Conclusions Pregnancy makes the diagnosis and treatment of DTC become more complicated，the diagnosis and treatment of DTC during pregnancy present a challenging situation for the endocrinologists，surgeon，and obstetrician.
ObjectiveTo summarize the progress of diagnosis and treatment in male breast cancer. MethodsThe literatures about the research progress of diagnosis and treatment in male breast cancer were reviewed. ResultsThe diagnosis of male breast cancer relied mainly on clinical manifestations and imaging manifestations, the main treatment of male breast cancer was modified radical operation, combining with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, and targeted therapy. ConclusionsThe treatment of male breast cancer is mainly reference the treatment of female breast cancer, which is lack of a clear standard of treatment. Indepth study on the molecular genetic level will provide more accurate care decisions for the treatment of male breast cancer.
ObjectiveIn order to improve the levels of clinical diagnosis and treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer, the research status and progress of blood markers of differentiated thyroid cancer in recent years were reviewed.MethodThe literatures about blood markers and liquid biopsy of differentiated thyroid cancer at home and abroad in recent years were searched and summarized.ResultsThyroglobulin and thyroglobulin antibody were the most commonly used for markers of differentiated thyroid cancer. The application value of blood markers such as microRNA and long non-coding RNA in the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of differentiated thyroid cancer had also been found.ConclusionBecause of the advantages of high specificity, high sensitivity, and no-invasion, blood markers are useful indicators to help improve the diagnosis of thyroid cancer patients and monitor the disease progression and recurrence in the future.
Objective To summarize the advanced researchs of autoimmune thyroid disease(ATD) complicated with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Methods The related literatures about concurrent ATD and DTC were consulted and reviewed. Results Hashimoto diseas (HD) complicated with DTC at home and abroad were reported more and more, whether merging with HD or other ATD disease could affect the prognosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) was a controversial topic. HD and DTC (mainly PTC) had some same epidemiological and molecular features. Conclusion Better understanding of clinical pathology and characteristic of DTC concurrent with ATD can provide some new insights to immunotherapy for DTC.
