[Familial occurrence of onocytic carcinoma of the thyroid gland during pregnancy (author's transl)].
Two cases of oncocytic papillary carcinoma of the thyroid gland are reported, which occurred in two sisters during pregnancy. In both cases the follow-up is without complications (after strumectomy and postoperative radiation) and therefore it is in strong contrast to the aggressive biological behaviour during pregnancy. The oncocytic papillary carcinoma is a rare disease in the endemic-goitre area without iodine prophylaxis. Electron microscopic findings confirm the histological diagnosis and outline the oncocytic cell against light-microscopically similar cells.
