説明

We report a case of postoperative liver metastasis from medullary carcinoma of thyroid treated with chemoembolization which resulted in stable values of tumor markers for 2 yeas after the treatment.<br> The female patient underwent total thyroidectomy and lymphadenectomy (D3a) for medullary carcinoma of thyroid (pT2bN1bM0) of the age of 14. The values of serum CEA and calcitonin gradually increased at the age of 17, but various imaging examinations showed no recurrence or metastatic lesions. Eight years after the operation when she was 22, enhanced computed tomographic scan showed multiple metastatic lesions with the diameter of less than 1.5cm, which were enhanced in the early phase, of the liver. The value of serum CEA was 852.9ng/ml, and calcitonin was 12100pg/ml. We performed chemoembolization 3 times for these lesions. Though 2 years have elapsed afterward, no changes in the size or shape of the hepatic masses have been observed and the values of serum CEA and calcitonin remains relatively low (CEA: 577.5ng/ml and calcitonin: 6400pg/ml).
