Overview
Cost-effective management of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 include targeted therapy, prophylactic thyroidectomy and restricted molecular screening.
Cost-Effectiveness of Therapy
Methods for Cost Effectiveness of the Therapy
- Molecular screening of RET gene limiting to exon 10,11 and 16 is an effective way of reducing the cost of management of thyroidectomy.
- For diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B, investigation of exon 16 is adequate and this further is a cost effective method.[1]
- Prophylactic thyroidectomy of patients screened positive for RET gene is a cost effective way of management of thyroidectomy.[2]
- Targeted therapy of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B yields lower costs that the present management of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2.[3]
