小児の甲状腺がん

疫学・臨床像を中心に 放射線関連の小児甲状腺がんと放射線被ばく歴のない小児甲状腺がんとの間には、臨床像・予後に差がないことが知られている。(Tuttle RM 2011) 小児甲状腺がんの頻度は少ないが、その臨床像は判ってきている (Ito Y. Kuma Hospital 2012)。

During the 15-year period of observation, 67 new lesions were detected in persons previously found to be free of thyroid disease. This represented a 15-year incidence rate of 1.4%, 1.7% in females and 0.9% in males. None of these newly detected lesions showed evidence of malignancy.

解剖所見では50%の人に甲状腺結節が存在するが、その多くは小さい

超音波検査では70%の成人に甲状腺結節が存在するが、そのほとんどが小さく、臨床意義ははっきりしない

「小さく触れる事のできない乳頭がんは臨床的に重要でない」というのが一般的な合意である。

@myen Wartofsky"There is general agreement that these small, occult, and mostly papillary cancers are of little or no clinical significance"
