Summary
This study assessed for disparities in the presentation and management of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). The authors identified patients with MTC from the National Cancer Database and assessed differences in disease presentation and likelihood of guideline-concordant surgical management by sex and race/ethnicity. The results showed that male and non-White patients with MTC more frequently present with advanced disease, and Black patients are less likely to undergo guideline-concordant surgery.
