Contents:
Molecular risk stratification of well-differentiated thyroid cancer -- The significance of cervical lymph nodes in well-differentiated thyroid cancer -- Management of the central compartment in well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma -- Management of the lateral neck in   well-differentiated thyroid cancer -- The management of recurrent/persistent well-differentiated thyroid cancer in the central compartment -- Management of distant metastases in differentiated thyroid cancer -- Risk-adjusted strategies in post-treatment surveillance of well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma -- Medullary thyroid cancer -- Anaplastic thyroid cancer: Current concepts -- External beam radiotherapy for thyroid cancer -- Targeted therapies in thyroid cancer.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant endocrine tumour. The incidence of thyroid cancer has been increasing more rapidly than any other cancer in many of the cancer registries from different parts of the world.  Although the majority of thyroid cancers have an indolent biological behavior, different histological types have a diverse clinical behavior. Well-differentiated thyroid cancers have an excellent survival, whereas poorly differentiated and anaplastic thyroid cancers have a very poor outcome. This volume of Head and Neck Cancer Clinics addresses advances, controversies and state-of-the-art treatment recommendations of various types of thyroid cancers.    .
