RESUMEN
Tipo de estudio Retrospectivo y comparativo en el hospital Dr. Juan Tanca Marengo ION SOLCA de la ciudad de Guayaquil, durante el período comprendido de enero de 1991 a diciembre del año 2000, sobre cáncer de tiroides.

Objetivo:

Comparar en dos grupos problema de 33 pacientes cada uno, variables referentes a sexo, edad, tipo histológico, y fundamentalmente el periodo de remisión tumoral entre dos terapéuticas que se presentaron durante estos diez años como parte del protocolo utilizado en la institución donde se llevó a cabo el estudio.

Resultados:

De 131 pacientes, 66 participaron en el estudio, pudiéndose constatar que es una patología con mayor incidencia en las mujeres relación mujer – hombre 2.8–1, que si bien el tipo histológico fue contundentemente el carcinoma papilar, se observó una proporción idéntica entre el cáncer folicular y el cáncer anaplásico, dato que no se reporta normalmente en otros países. Finalmente y los más importante fue que pacientes que fueron solamente operados recidivaron en un 61% vs. un 15% en pacientes que posteriormente de la cirugía recibieron Yodo 131, concluyéndose que esta asociación es el tratamiento de elección para pacientes con cáncer diferenciado de tiroides sin importar edad y estadio de la enfermedad.

ABSTRACT
Type of study Retrospective and comparative study at the Dr. Juan Tanca Marengo Hospital ION SOLCA in the city of Guayaquil, during the period of time between January of 1991 to December of the year 2000, in a group of patients with thyroid cancer.

Objective:

To compare two groups of 33 patients. The variables are sex, age, histological type, and fundamentally the period of tumor remission between two therapeutic treatments that were presented during these ten years as part of the protocol used in the institution where the study was carried out.

Results:

Of 131 patients, 66 participated in the study, being able to verify that it is pathology with more incidences in the women. Where the ratio between woman - man 2.8 - . Overwhelmingly the most frequent malignancy was the Papillary Carcinoma. An identical ratio was observed between follicular and anaplastic carcinoma a finding that is not usually reported in other countries. The most important finding was that patients that were solely operated recurred in 61% vs. only 15% in patients that after surgery they received Iodine 131. We conclude that this association of surgery and treatment with Iodine 131 is the goal treatment for patients with differentiated thyroid cancer without emphasis on age and stage of the illness.

Conclusions:

Women less than 40 years of age and economically active had a higher incidence due to the hormonal and labor factor which is associated with the etiology. Patients with Differentiated thyroid Cancer should receive the combined treatment.
