https://www.selleckchem.com/products/BIBF1120.html Given the tumor's hypervascularity, lenvatinib was chosen due its potent vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibition, as well as its availability at our institution. Results Lenvatinib therapy resulted in rapid regression of tumor volume (approximately 70% reduction) as documented by computed tomography and ultrasound. Surgery after 4 months of treatment resulted in a 99% reduction in serum calcitonin and imaging studies 6 months later showed no residual disease. Conclusion Lenvatinib has potential as a neoadjuvant agent in advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma, and permitted tumor resection in this previously inoperable patient.Objective To describe the case of a man who developed amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) after a total thyroidectomy for metastatic follicular thyroid cancer because of the effect of the drug on metastasis. To the best of our knowledge this is the first reported case of this condition. Methods We completed a retrospective review of medical records and laboratory results including thyroid function tests as well as imaging reports including plain radiographs, positron emission tomographs, computed tomographs, and histology reports. Results A 78-year-old man had undergone a total thyroidectomy for follicular thyroid cancer. He had meta-static disease in his chest and vertebrae, and after the operation he was started on suppressive levothyroxine treatment prior to ablative radioactive iodine treatment. Prior to thyroidectomy, his thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration was 3.21 mU/L (reference range is 0.35 to 3.50 mU/L). On suppressive thyroxine replacement, his TSH concentration was 0.02 mU/L, his free thyroxine was 13 pmol/L (reference range is 8 to 12 pmol/L), and free triiodothyronine was 5.8 pmol/L (reference range is 3.8 to 6.0 pmol/L). He subsequently had a myocardial infarction and required antiarrhythmic treatment with amiodarone. Eleven days later he developed t
