PURPOSE
To evaluate the evolution in time of incidence, clinical and histological profile in our setting from 1975 to 2009 taking into account two main events:
• The accident from Chernobyl
• The role of iodine prophylaxis
![Page 3: THYROID CANCER EVOLUTION OF THE DISEASE EVALUATED IN ONE SETTING VOICHIŢA MOGOŞ 1. EUGEN TIRCOVEANU 2 1. Clinic of Endocrinology, 1 st Surgery Clinici.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cdb5503460f949a63fe/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Data from literature
• There was noticed a steady increase of thyroid cancer all over the world
• External irradiation in the only well documented cause in papillary thyroid cancer leading to RET/PTC re-arrangements
• Iodine deficiency may play a role in the development of follicular cancer and may favor the development of anaplastic carcinoma
• Iodine repletion is associated with increased incidence of papillary carcinoma with excellent prognosis

There was noticed a steady increase of thyroid cancer all over the world
Davies L et al. JAMA 2006, 295, 2164-2167
Between 1973-2002:• 2.4 times increase in thyroid cancer incidence• All thyroid cancer: 3.6/105 to 8.7/105/year (with 5.1/105)• Papillary cancer: 2.7/105 to 7.7/105/year • Small papillary cancer account for 87 % of the cancer • Mortality decreased from 0.57 to 0.47/105/year
– External irradiation stopped after 1961
– Most data show that precocious diagnosis by ultrasound and FNB leads to increased incidence but stable mortality
– Papillary cancer has a long evolution and excellent survival
– Over diagnosis increased the number of radical surgery and its complications

External irradiation was the only well documented cause in papillary thyroid cancer leading to RET/PTC re-arrangements
Data from internal irradiation are related to the best studied nuclear plant accident from Chernobyl
![Page 13: THYROID CANCER EVOLUTION OF THE DISEASE EVALUATED IN ONE SETTING VOICHIŢA MOGOŞ 1. EUGEN TIRCOVEANU 2 1. Clinic of Endocrinology, 1 st Surgery Clinici.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cdb5503460f949a63fe/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Thyroid irradiationThe role of external irradiation in induction of thyroid cancer was
first noticed by Duffy and Fitzgerald in 1953, in those who received external irradiation for different diseases. 36 % of children who developed thyroid cancer had neck irradiation in their personal history
The role of radioiodine was largely studied after Chernobyl Contamination:
• Internal irradiation by inhalation or ingestion of: radioactive iodine 131I, 132I, 135I, 131mTe (tellurium). 133 Te
• External irradiation X ray, gamma Irradiation due to radioactive material deposits on the ground1
• Belarus: cancer in children: 1/106 before and 100/106 after Chernobyl2. The risk in children less than 1 year is 30 fold greater3

Thyroid irradiation
Questions: • Which is the role of the previous iodine intake in the
contaminated area• Which are the factors that modify the risk of thyroid cancer
after exposure to irradiation: – contamination level
– individual factors
Total dose of exposure:
– 365 mGy in Belarus (7- 3109 mGy)
– 40 mGy Rusian Federation (max. 10.2Gy)
– Dose of exposure to radioiodine: 1-2 mGy

Thyroid irradiation
• The risk to develop thyroid cancer after irradiation in individual who previously consumed stable iodine after an exposure to 1 Gy is reduced 5 fold
• Low level of iodine in the soil is correlated with a 3 fold increase of risk to develop cancer compared with residents in areas with naturally more iodine in soil
• At doses of contamination between 1.5-2 Gy there is no linear correlation between exposure and risk of cancer
• Previously ingestion of iodine reduces radioactive iodine intake• Increased iodine supply reduces thyroid volume and
multiplication of thyroid cell and risk of occurrence of mutations

1986-1995 in Bellarus 472 patients among which 97.7 were differentiated cancers
• median age: les than 14 years
• median age at exposure: 4.4 in children and 8.9 in adolescents
Italy and France after Chernobyl: 369 patients
Mean age in children more than 14 years
Follicular cancer: 15.2 % compared with 5.3 % in Bellarus
Most effected children were exposed at less than 5 years1
Most cancers occur 5-30 years after irradiation but the risk last to 50 years2

Iodine and thyroid cancer• The relationship between thyroid cancer and dietary iodine is
controversial• There are some data that could demonstrate that iodine deficiency
may increase thyroid cancer in some areas• Iodine may act as adjuvant factor for carcinogensis and may have a
role in the hystological profile of thyroid cancer• Is obvious from all statistics that increased dietary iodine is
associated with an increase of incidence of thyroid cancer1
• Sicilia: – Thyroid malignancies: IDA – 2.96%, ISA 5.48 %
– Follicular cancer: IDA; up to 127/105,
– Anaplastic cancer: 93/1051. Knobel M et al. Arq.Bras. Endocrinol.Metab. 2007, 51, 701-712

Iodine and thyroid cancer
Iodine deficiency is associated with a relative risk (RR) of cancer as follows (Sweden)1
• 0.92 for all histological types• 0.80 for papillary cancer • 0.87 for anaplastic carcinma• 1.98 for follicular cancer
The risk for follicular cancer is 1.3-15 in iodine deficient areas and depends of the time of residence in these areas2

Data from literature
• Elisei has demonstrated that clinical and histological profile of thyroid cancers was modified during the last 35 years through:
• Increased incidence of papillary cancers from 80,5 % to 91% during these years
• Decreased follicular cancers from 19,5 % to 9 %; • Increased incidence of cancer with diameter of less than 1 cm. from
7,9% in the firs half of the interval to 28,7 % in the second• Reduced incidence of macro-invasive cancers from 7 % to 1,9 %;• Reduced incidence of cancers with distant metastases from 5,4 la 2
%;• Reduced incidence of cases with lymph node metastases from 34,2
% to 22, 4%;• Reduced incidence of cases in advanced stages according to TNM
VI, for stage III 10,8 to 7,4 % and for stage IV from 4,2% to 1,7 %.

MATHERIAL AND METHOD
• Data from files of patients with thyroid tumors submitted to surgery between 1975-2009 (35 years) were divided into 5 years intervals and analyzed for:
• New cases for each interval• Histology• Clinical appearance • Stage of the disease according to TNM classification and
tumor stage grouping TNM VI• Ratio between papillary and follicular cancer as indirect
signs for the role of supposed external irradiation and modification due to iodine prophylaxis

MATHERIAL AND METHOD
• From 1981 most patients were assessed based on fine needle biopsy performed within the Department of Endocrinology of our hospital
• Our data were compared with data from the Department of Endocrinology analyzed between 1971 and 2000 for patients admitted in this setting including those operated in other surgery clinics

WHAY WE FOCUSED OUR RESEARCH ON CHANGES OF HYSTOLOGICAL PROFILE OF
TUMORS DURING TIME?
• Histology, age and stage at diagnosis are the best predictive prognostic factors for thyroid cancers
• All these factors are influenced by at least two major events that happen in Romania:
• Hypothetical external irradiation after Chernobyl with increase of papillary forms
• Important modification of iodine supply due to active and universal salt iodination also with increase of papillary form and decrease of incidence of goiter that may mask a carcinoma

Expectation after external irradiation and improved iodine supply
• Increased incidence of papillary carcinomas in younger age, but the risk after exposure persists long life after exposure
• Increased incidence of aggressive forms in children and young adult immediately after irradiation
• Normal iodine intake is associated also with increase of papillary cancers with good prognosis even in advanced forms and increased papillary to follicular ratio
• Decrease incidence of follicular cancer with a less good prognosis
• Decrease incidence of anaplastic carcinoma• Diagnosis made in less advanced stages of the disease

CONCLUSIONSOur data on patients with thyroid cancers analyzed over a period
of 35 years indicate that: • It is an important increase in each 5 years interval, of number
of new cases• There is an important increase of papillary cancer and the ratio
between papillary and follicular cancer and a decrease of anaplastic carcinoma
• There is increase of cases discovered in earlier stages of the disease
• We cannot assume that this events are due to the external irradiation because of lack of genetic and clinical evidence
• We believe that the afore mentioned evolution of histological profile of thyroid cancer in our setting is due to a better iodine prophylaxis
