Abstract :

 Within oad category of thyroid cancers, there are many types, each with a distinctive epidemiology, natural history, treatment and prognosis. The general categories of thyroid cancer are well differentiated malignancies, anaplastic cancer, medullary thyroid cancer, and other unusual cancers such as lymphoma, sarcoma, and other rare malignancies.

            Prognostically, papillary carcinoma is having a very long natural history, giving ample scope for the surgeon to effect complete cure, if diagnosed early. While, the most malignant variety is the anaplastic carcinoma, where the surgeon has very little to do.

            Diagnosed early, treated properly, most forms of differentiated carcinomas of thyroid are curable. Being the most common endocrine carcinoma, it generates considerable clinical interest amongst endocrinologists, surgeons and oncologists.
