Germline and somatic mutations of the RET proto-oncogene are important pathogenetic factors in hereditary and sporadic forms of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). We have therefore analysed exons 10, I I. 13, 14 and 16 of this gene in 85 individuals from 16 Austrian families who, according to clinic
