Thyroid cancer in pregnancy: case reports

Publication at First Faculty of Medicine |
2014

Abstract

Thyroid cancer in pregnancy requires multidisciplinary cooperation and every case has to be considered individually, if there is some optimal treatment strategy, or if it is possible to proceed in various ways. The article describes two case reports, the first surgery was postponed after birth and the second was performed in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy.

It is impossible to favor any of these procedures based on current knowledge except locally advanced disease and thus, final decision is always individual.
