Introduction: Bone metastases (BM) are rare in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). They determine the quality of life and survival of these patients. Our objective was to evaluate the characteristics, survival and prognostic factors of a cohort of patients with BM from CDT.Methods: Retrospective descriptive study. Patients with BM from DTC diagnosed between 1980-2021 were included. Qualitative variables are shown as n(%); quantitative variables as media...

Background: The indication of ablation with I131 in low-risk DTC is controversial. The exact dose needed for thyroid remnant ablation is still a matter of debate in low-risk DTC patients. However, low dose has been found to be equally effective as high dose in terms of recurrence rate in recent studies. Taking this into account the current trend is to administer lower doses, although some studies describe a higher rate of retreatment.Aims: 1. To examine ...

Background: Autonomic hyperfunctioning thyroid nodules account for approximately 5% to 10% of all thyroid nodules. Compared with non-toxic nodules, hot nodules are traditionally believed to have an exceptionally low malignancy rate, and this has led to recommendations not to perform fine-needle aspiration (FNA) on these lesions, regardless of their size. However, recent studies have questioned the presumed low risk of malignancy in hot nodules, suggesting that the incidence of...

Purpose: To establish the safety and efficacy of multikinase inhibitors (MKIs) treatment in real life.Methods: This retrospective observational descriptive study included patients with advanced differentiated thyroid cancer in treatment with MKIs as first and second line treatment. From November 2011 to May 2022. Clinical variables, efficacy and adverse events (AE) were collected. Variables are expressed as median and interquartile range.<p class="ab...

Objective: To describe the characteristics, survival and prognostic factors of a cohort of patients with bone metastases (BM) of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).Methods: Multicenter retrospective observational study. Patients diagnosed with DTC and BM between 1980-2021 were included. A Cox regression was performed to study prognostic factors for 5- and 10-year survival. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were performed for survival analysis and compa...
