Overview

The incidence of medullary thyroid cancer is approximately 14.3 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The incidence of medullary thyroid cancer increases with age; Sporadic form of medullary thyroid cancer commonly presents in the fifth and sixth decade of life. The familial form tends to appear earlier in life.
