Abstract

A 54-year-old woman who had undergone total thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine treatment for papillary thyroid cancer presented with elevated stimulated thyroglobulin levels and negative I-131 scan. Ultrasonography revealed suspicious lateral neck lymph nodes, which were FDG-avid. Neck dissection led to a diagnosis of Castleman disease.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
