RESUMEN

Introducción:

El microcarcinoma diferenciado de tiroides (MCDT) es definido por la OMS, como un tumor <10 mm en su diámetro mayor. Estos tumores son casi exclusivamente de estirpe papilar, representando el 30 % de todos los carcinomas papilares. La historia natural del MCDT es poco conocida y existe una controversia sobre cuál es la óptima forma de abordaje.

Objetivos:

1) Analizar retrospectivamente las características del MCDT; 2) Evaluar factores de riesgo de persistencia/recurrencia en una cohorte retrospectiva seguida en la C.A.B.A. Materiales y

Métodos:

Se recolectaron los datos de 187 pacientes en un estudio retrospectivo multicéntrico y se analizaron las características clínicas, histopatológicas, bioquímicas y distintos factores pronósticos del MCDT.

Resultados:

El 82,8 % eran mujeres, con una X ± DS de edad de 48 ± 13 años. La mediana de tiempo de seguimiento fue de 38 meses (r 1-120). El 97 % de los tumores eran de estirpe papilar. En el 29,4 % de los pacientes el hallazgo fue incidental, de los cuales el 57 % se operó por el tamaño del bocio. El 81 % de los pacientes fue sometido a una tiroidectomía total, mientras que el 91,4 % recibió ablación posquirúrgica con radioiodo. Los 174 pacientes que fueron seguidos por más de 12 meses, con una X ± DS de 49 ± 36,9 meses, fueron incluidos en el análisis de sobrevida. El 84 % estaban libres de enfermedad (LE) al final del seguimiento. De los factores de persistencia/recurrencia analizados, la Tg preablativa > 20 ng/ml resultó un predictor independiente. Al realizar el análisis de regresión de Cox para el evento LE, se demostró que tanto la edad tiempo para alcanzar un estado LE (p= 0,010, 0,017 y 0,011 respectivamente).

Conclusión:

El 84 % de los pacientes se encontró libre de enfermedad al final del seguimiento, avalando el buen pronóstico de esta patología. La edad tiempo para alcanzar un estado LE.
ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Differentiated thyroid microcarcinoma (MCDT) has been defined as a differentiated thyroid cancer measuring 10 mm or less. The majority of these tumors are papillary thyroid carcinomas and comprise 30 % of all papillary thyroid carcinomas. Little is known of its natural history and there is an ongoing controversy in the field regarding its optimum management.

Objectives:

1) To describe the characteristics of MCDT 2) To assess risk factors for persistence and/ or recurrence of disease in a retrospective cohort of patients followed up at several health centers of the City of Buenos Aires (CABA). Patients and

Methods:

The medical records of 187 patients with MCDT operated on between January 1st, 2000 and December 31st, 2009 at several centers of CABA were retrospectively reviewed, and clinical, histopathological, biochemical characteristics and risk factors were assessed.

Results:

Most of the patients were female (82.8 %) and their mean age was 48 ± 13 (X ± SD) years. Median follow up was 38 months (range 1 to 120 months), and 97 % of tumors were papillary thyroid cancers. Incidentalomas accounted for 29.4 % of tumors, mostly found during a surgical procedure undergone for the size of the goitre. Over 81 % of patients underwent a total thyroidectomy, while 91.4 % received radioactive iodine ablation. Patients with a follow-up longer than 12 months after surgery were analyzed longitudinally to assess prognostic factors of disease outcome (174 patients). After a mean follow-up of 49 ± 36.9 months, 146 (84 %) patients had no evidence of disease. Only postoperative, preablation Tg levels > 20 ng/ml were identified as an independent adverse prognostic factor in the multivariate analyses. In addition, age < 45 ys. (p< 0.01), tumor size > 0.5cm (p<0.017), and preablation Tg levels >20 ng/ml (p<0.011) were independent prognostic factors of a longer time to disease remission in the longitudinal analyses.

Conclusion:

Differentiated thyroid microcarcinoma has an excellent prognosis in our local practice, with 84 % disease remission at long-term follow-up. Age at diagnosis, tumor size and preablation Tg levels were independent prognostic factors of time to disease remission.
