Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare unique tumor which differs from other thyroid tumors by originating from the neuroendocrine C-cell, secreting the specific tumor marker calcitonin. MTC is associated in about 25% of cases with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, an autosomal dominant familial disorder causing tumors within various endocrine glands. The molecular genetics of tumor development is clarified: hereditary as well as sporadic MTC are linked to mutations in the RET proto- oncogene coding for a tyrosine kinase. These RET mutations serve as a genetic marker for hereditary MTC and allow for prophylactic thyroidectomy in gene carriers. The RET-tyrosine kinase is also a new therapeutic target using selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors improving the outcome of advanced metastasized MTC.
