Radiation associated thyroid carcinoma is usually of differentiated variety and carried no different prognosis than one not related to radiation. Coexisting adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma is a very rare event, but makes the prognosis of patients with thyroid carcinoma much poorer. As a result, this kind of patient requires early recognition and aggressive therapy. References 1 Maxon HR, Thomas SR, Saenger EL, Buncher CR, Keveiakes JG.
