Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a particularly interesting model of gene expression in cancer. As a matter of fact, it is remarkable from many points of view: it occurs in two forms: (1) MTC only or part of a multiple endocrine neoplasia II (MEN II), and (2) it is sporadic or inherited and benefits from a specific and sensible marker, calcitonin; the gene responsible for the hereditary form is localized on chromosome 10. Taking into account clinical, biological, genealogical and epidemiological features of the disease as supporting one another, a French collective study has been initiated; preliminary analysis of data allows to conclude on the value of such national collaboration for early diagnosis, prognosis and estimation of the incidence of the disease.
