“…In fact, it has been calculated that when the FNMTC definition is based on the presence of two affected members, the probability of a family origin is 47%, while when it is based on a minimum of 3 firstdegree relatives, the probability of being related rises to more than 95% (6)(7)(8). Clinical studies show that NS-FNMTC shows more extrathyroidal extension, multifocality, combination with both benign thyroid nodules and Hashimoto disease, and a younger age at onset (3,4,9). In contrast, in most articles describing susceptibility genes for NS-FNMTC, however, the histopathological characteristics of TC are usually not very precise (Figure 1).…”
