Recent studies have demonstrated that BRAFV600E mutation is a common event in papillary thyroid carcinoma and a majority of these lesions have shown a direct relationship between BRAFV600E mutation and aggressive characteristics, including a worse patient prognosis. However, there are no studies from Japan regarding this issue in a large series with adequate postoperative follow-up periods. We investigated BRAFV600E mutation in 631 patients with papillary carcinoma having median follow-up periods of 83 months. The prevalence of BRAFV600E mutation was 38.4%, and the rate was higher in carcinoma larger than 1.0 cm but did not successively increase with tumor size. Furthermore, the prevalence did not significantly increase in cases demonstrating high-risk biological features such as clinically apparent lymph node metastasis, massive extrathyroid extension, advanced age, distant metastasis at surgery, and advanced Stage. The disease-free survival of patients with BRAFV600E mutation did not differ from that of those without BRAFV600E mutation. These findings indicate that, although BRAFV600E mutation may play some roles in local carcinoma development, there is no evidence that BRAFV600E mutation significantly reflects the aggressive characteristics and poor prognosis of patients with papillary carcinoma in Japan.

Lymph node metastasis is an important clinicopathological feature of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). PTC having clinically apparent lateral node metastasis detectable on preoperative imaging studies (N1b) is known to show a dire prognosis. However, N1b cases include various levels of biological aggressiveness, depending on the size, number, laterality and invasiveness of metastatic nodes. We investigated differences in the prognoses of 621 N1b patients based on these features and compared their prognoses with those of 4297 patients without clinically apparent metastasis (N0) and 125 patients with clinically apparent central node metastasis only (N1a). Disease-free survival (DFS) and cause-specific survival (CSS) of N1b or N1a patients were significantly worse than those of N0 patients, but the prognosis of N1b patients did not differ from that of N1a patients. In the subset of N1b patients, metastatic nodes larger than 3cm, extranodal extension, or 5 or more clinically apparent metastatic nodes independently affected DFS and a combination of the former two features also showed an effect on CSS on multivariate analysis. Prognosis of N1b patients who had none of these features did not differ from that of N1a patients. It is therefore suggested that N1b patients having metastasis larger than 3cm, those showing extranodal extension, and those having 5 or more clinically apparent metastasis should regarded as high-risk, and that careful surgical treatment and postoperative follow-up are necessary.

Metastatic differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) is an uncommon cause of malignant pleural effusion (MPE) and the characteristics and clinical course have been rarely described. Herein, we report a retrospective review of the clinical course of 18 patients (15 women and 3 men) with MPE from DTC who underwent treatment at our institution between January 2005 and December 2014. MPE from DTC was diagnosed based on cytology and/or level of thyroglobulin in the pleural fluid. Pathologically, papillary carcinoma was found in 16 patients and follicular carcinoma in 2 patients. Median ages at initial diagnosis of DTC and MPE were 64 years (range, 22-79) and 74 years (range, 39-86), respectively. All patients showed radiologically apparent lung metastases, with MPE developing after 0-212 months (median, 25). In 16 patients (88.9%), other coexistent distant metastases at the time of MPE diagnosis were found in the bone (n = 10), brain (n = 5), and skin (n = 2). All patients were treated conservatively with palliative thoracentesis or chest tube drainage with or without pleurodesis. Recurrent MPE after treatment was seen in 9 patients; discharge to home health care after treatment for MPE was possible for 14 patients. The overall survival after initial diagnosis varied considerably from 14 months to 37 years, but the median survival after appearance of MPE was 10 months (range, 1-28). Systemic therapy for iodine-resistant recurrent thyroid disease may need to be considered as a treatment option for patients with MPE.

Anaplastic carcinoma arises from differentiated carcinoma and generally shows a dire prognosis. Anaplastic transformation may occur not only in primary tumors but also in metastatic lymph nodes. We encountered 5 cases of papillary carcinoma showing anaplastic transformation in lymph nodes that were curatively resected. Patient ages ranged from 67 to 85 years. Two of these patients showed anaplastic transformation at the initial surgery and the remaining 3 showed anaplastic transformation after repeated recurrence to the lymph nodes. After resection of anaplastic lesions of the nodes, 2 patients underwent radiation therapy, whereas the remaining 3 did not receive any adjuvant therapy. One patient died of rapid growth of lung metastasis 5 months after the resection. One patient died of carcinoma 63 months after surgery. Two patients have survived to date, 6 and 85 months after resection, respectively. The remaining one patient died of heart failure 11 months after surgery. It is therefore suggested that long-term survival can be expected for patients with differentiated carcinoma showing anaplastic transformation in the lymph node if the lesions can be curatively resected.
