Cancer of the thyroid gland may be a less common condition than carcinoma of the breast, lung, or colon, but it occurs with suf?cient frequency to constitute a major problem that is of concern to general practitioners, physicians, and particularly s- geons.Some idea of the frequency of thyroid carcinoma is given by its incidence in the United States. Every year some 26,000 patients are diagnosed there as suffering from thyroid cancer.Comparable ?gures apply to most countries in Europe although the in- dence does vary somewhat from country to country,perhaps depending on the endo- nous iodine intake.Of the 21,000 patients diagnosed annually in the United States,two thirds will be women,and some 800 will die of the disease during the year. This book should do much to improve the outcome in the treatment of thyroid cancer. First because it is written by a small team of experts of international repute. Secondly their wide experience of the condition allows them to write with authority and thirdly they express their views in clear and commendable English.

From the Back Cover

Practical Management of Thyroid Cancer follows the American and European model of treating thyroid cancer according to the high standards recommended by the available guidelines. All rare and curable cancers including thyroid cancers with a good prognosis should be treated by a multidisciplinary team of experts following published guidelines. This essential volume is therefore directed not only to the management of thyroid cancer in developed countries but is also the model that will be highly attractive to the developing countries.

This is an invaluable reference to health care professionals, from primary to tertiary care, involved in the management of thyroid cancer such as clinical nurse specialists, clinical psychologists, family medicine practitioners, specialists in palliative care (especially for anaplastic thyroid cancers), genetics as well as surgeons, endocrinologists, oncologists, pathologists, and radiologists.
