Thallium-201 scintigraphy in differentiated thyroid cancer: comparison with radioiodine scintigraphy and serum thyroglobulin determinations.
The role of thallium-201 (201TI) scintigraphy in the follow-up evaluation of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) is controversial. Desirable characteristics of 201TI scintigraphy including the potential for no thyroid hormone withdrawal, immediate imaging postinjection, and low radiation burden relative to iodine-131 (131I) suggests it is logistically superior to 131I scintigraphy. Fifty-two...

متن کاملRetro-orbital metastasis from differentiated thyroid carcinoma in a radioiodine therapy-naïve patient: any lesson learned?.
OBJECTIVE To present the case of a radioiodine therapy-naïve thyroid cancer patient with postthyroidectomy diplopia. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 63-year-old male patient presented with goiter. Histology performed after thyroidectomy proved follicular thyroid cancer. Without (131)I therapy, diplopia occurred from metastasis to the right medial rectus muscle. Improvement followed a...
متن کاملHepatic metastasis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Differentiated thyroid cancers (DTC) often form metastases in neck lymph nodes, lungs and bones. Other metastases--to the brain, kidneys, skin and liver are rare. Liver metastases of DTC occur in the terminal phase of the disease and predominantly do not accumulate radioiodine. Functional (accumulating radioiodine) metastases are very rare. MATERIAL AND METHODS In an 85 year old pa...
متن کاملAnalysis of radioiodine therapy and prognostic factors of differentiated thyroid cancer patients with pulmonary metastasis
To assess the efficacy of radioiodine therapy (RIT) and investigate the prognostic factors for patients with pulmonary metastasis secondary to differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) through a retrospective study. A total of 80 patients with radioactive iodine-131 (I)-avid pulmonary metastasis from DTC treated with I from 2007 to 2014 at our institution entered the study. Treatment response was ...
