INTRODUCTION: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare thyroid malignancy originating from parafollicular C cells. It accounts for 5%-10% of all thyroid malignancies.
AIMS: The International Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma Grading System, introduced in 2022, mandates evaluation of the Ki67 proliferation index to assign a histological grade for medullary thyroid carcinoma. However, manual counting remains a tedious and...
BACKGROUND: For medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) with no positive findings in the lateral neck before surgery, whether prophylactic lateral neck dissection (LND) is needed remains controversial. A better way to predict occult metastasis in the later...
BACKGROUND: Thyroid cancer is a common thyroid malignancy. The majority of thyroid lesion needs intraoperative frozen pathology diagnosis, which provides important information for precision operation. As digital whole slide images (WSIs) develop, dee...
BACKGROUND: The post-surgical prognosis for Pulmonary Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (PLCNEC) patients remains largely unexplored. Developing a precise prognostic model is vital to assist clinicians in patient counseling and creating effective t...

Prostate cancer (PCa) poses a significant global health challenge, particularly due to its progression into aggressive forms like neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). This study developed and validated a stemness-associated gene signature using adv...
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) arise from diffuse neuroendocrine cells and are categorized as either well-differentiated and less proliferative Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs), divided into low (G1), middle (G2), and high grades (G3), or poorly differe...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop a dynamic survival prediction model utilizing conditional survival (CS) analysis and machine learning techniques for gastric neuroendocrine carcinomas (GNECs).
OBJECTIVE: Neuroendocrine cervical carcinoma (NECC) is a rare but highly aggressive tumor. The clinical management of NECC follows neuroendocrine neoplasms and cervical cancer in general. However, the diagnosis and prognosis of NECC remain dismal. Th...
BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is challenging, especially in poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). This study was aimed to search the best or best combination of neuroendocrine markers in the diagn...
