## Abstract ## Background Routine measurement of serum calcitonin to detect medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) continues to be fiercely debated, although less attention has been paid to the positive predictive value (PPV) of this method. ## Methods We collected data from 959 patients with nontoxi

## BACKGROUND. The aim of this study was to identify better prognostic parameters for normalization of serum calcitonin in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) patients. ## METHODS. In 73 patients who had undergone systematic lymph node dissection for MTC between September 1995 and November 1998, pr

## Abstract Nineteen patients who have had medullary carcinomas of the thyroid have been followed up at the Royal Marsden Hospital. All had nodal involvement. Postoperative unprovoked serum calcitonin assays have been performed. Four patients had incomplete excisions of their tumours and these had
