Abstract
Thyroid carcinoma (TC) is rare and represents 1-2 % of all human tumors. The incidence of TC has been increasing worldwide. TC comprises of a heterogeneous group of tumours with variable biological activity. Women are mostly affected. TC can be divided in differentiated TC/DTCs (papillary - PTC, follicular - FTC, from Hürthle cells - HCC), medullary carcinoma - MTC and anaplastic thyroid cancer - ATC. In this article, we focus on possible pitfalls of suppression therapy (cardiovascular, bone and mental), particularly in low-risk patients, and we discuss the data on the adherence to guidelines for suppression therapy in DTC.
