Tiroglobulina y sus limitaciones en el seguimiento del carcinoma diferenciado del tiroides: Report of two cases

Thyroid carcinoma is the most prevalent endocrine tumor, and the papillary carcinoma (PC) is the most common histological type. In the follow-up, after thyroidectomy serum thyroglobulin (s-Tg) is used as a marker to evaluate recurrence of thyroid carcinoma. In most cases, this parameter allows an ad...
