Thyroid anaplastic carcinoma is an extremely aggressive neoplasm. Even in the recent reports, the prognosis of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma has been unhopeful, and the median survival is limited to months. We experienced a case of thyroid anaplastic carcinoma which exhibited a marked increase in the number of white blood cells (neutrophils, eosinophils and monocytes) and the elevation of serum levels of GM-CSF, M-CSF and IL-6.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
