Extractions: BMJ Low absolute risk, but prevention and monitoring are high priorities Over the past two decades, impressive advances have been made in the treatment and survival of children with cancer. Population based data from the United States document a 68% five year survival for children aged 0-15 years who were diagnosed with cancer in 1985. In the vast majority of cases, five year survival represents cure. Accordingly, the number of children and young adults in the population who have been exposed to cancer treatments, which often include radiation and chemotherapy, continues to increase. These children, cured of their cancer, are at risk from adverse effects of the treatment they received. Little is known about the long term consequences of cancer treatment.

http://www.endocrineweb.com/thyroidca.html

Extractions: There are over 11,000 new cases of thyroid cancer each year in the United States. Females are more likely to have thyroid cancer at a ratio of three to one. Thyroid cancer can occur in any age group, although it is most common after age 30 and its aggressiveness increases significantly in older patients. The majority of patients present with a nodule on their thyroid which typically does not cause symptoms. Occasionally, symptoms such as hoarseness, neck pain, and enlarged lymph nodes do occur. Although as much as 10 % of the population will have thyroid nodules, the vast majority are benign. Only approximately 5% of all thyroid nodules are malignant. A nodule which is cold on scan (shown in photo outlined in red and yellow) is more likely to be malignant, nevertheless, the majority of these are benign as well. A lot of information about thyroid nodules and the potential of these nodules to be malignant is contained on 3 pages about nodules: Introduction to thyroid nodules The workup of thyroid nodules and the role of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNA) The role of thyroid ultrasound and what it means
