Objective: We aimed to compare the effectiveness of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose in positron emission computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) findings under elevated TSH levels (eTSH) and suppressed TSH levels (sTSH) in differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients with TENIS syndrome (Thyroglobulin-elevated Negative Iodine Scintigraphy).Methods: A total of 23 patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) who undergone total thyroidectomy and 131I ablation therap...

Aim and Introduction: Peripheral giant cell granulomas (PHDG) are uncommon exophytic lesions of the oral cavity that originate from the periosteum or periodontal membrane as a polypoid mass. Mandibular involvement is more common than maxillary involvement. Patients with primary hyperparathyroidism can infrequently exhibit PHDG in the early stages of the disease. We wanted to present our case who was examined for giant cell granuloma developing in the mandibula and was found to...

Introduction: Radioiodine-resistant thyroid carcinoma is an important milestone in the treatment and follow-up of thyroid cancers. The biological defects of iodine uptake in thyroid cancer cells should be well known. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical and pathological features and SLC5A5 gene expression status of iodine-refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma patients. Material-Method: We studied SLC5A5 expression in 83 papillary thyroid car...

Introduction: The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) in the coexistence of Graves’ disease (GD) and thyroid nodule is not known clearly, and the pathophysiology of PTC development in these patients is still unclear. Aim: The aim of our study is to compare the clinicopathological features of GD patients with thyroid nodule + PTC and patients with euthyroid and non auto-immune thyroid nodule + PTC and investigate the clinicopathological featu...
