Familial papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma

MONDO:0017895

A papillary or follicular thyroid gland carcinoma with a genetic component that develops within the same family. Current studies suggest that it is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. It is often multifocal and bilateral and usually affects younger patients.

Also known as: FNMTC, familial nonmedullary thyroid gland carcinoma, familial pure nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma

Scientists hunt for thyroid cancer genes in families

Knowledge-focused Recruiting now

This study looks at families where non-medullary thyroid cancer runs in the family. Researchers want to learn how the disease develops, find genes that might increase risk, and figure out the best way to screen for it early. Participants will have exams, imaging, and blood tests,…
