Abstract

Early stage of medullary thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed in a 13 years old girl from the family with incidence of MEN IIa. High level of calcitonin after pentagastrin stimulation was crucial for the diagnosis. Pentagastrin test as a regular screening for medullary thyroid carcinoma for all children over 3 years of families with MEN IIa is recommended.
