Resumen
El cáncer de la glándula tiroides es la enfermedad maligna más común del sistema endocrino. En 2006 se diagnosticaron 221 casos nuevos de cáncer en el Instituto Nacional de Cancerología: aproximadamente, el 4% de todos los casos nuevos de cáncer. La junta de manejo multidisciplinario del cáncer de tiroides del Instituto Nacional de Cancerología ha sesionado semanalmente desde 1994. En este artículo se ha condensado el conocimiento grupal, producto de muchos años de colaboración interdisciplinaria, donde la experiencia se ha combinado con la mejor evidencia disponible. Es el resultado de un proceso institucional de generación de conocimientos de 14 años de evolución.

Abstract
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant disease of the endocrine system. Two hundred and twenty-one new cases were diagnosed at the National Cancer Institute of Colombia (NCI) in 2006, roughly 4% of all new cancer cases. Weekly multidisciplinary decision-making meetings on thyroid cancer management have been held at the NCI since 1994. This article covers the body of knowledge gathered through 14 years of interdisciplinary collaboration where experience has been combined with the best available evidence.
Key words:
Thyroid neoplasms
thyroglobulin
