Prete FP, et al. - In this retrospective study, researchers inspected the efficacy of thyroidectomy in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) syndrome between 1995 and 2013 in the UK.

It was deduced that early genetic testing and age-appropriate surgery could assist in avoiding unnecessary lymphadenectomy and improve outcomes.
