The endocrine system consists of various glands in the body that produce hormones, including the thyroid, adrenal glands, pancreas, and pituitary gland. The field of oncology that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cancers related to the endocrine system is known as endocrine oncology. Cancers that develop in these glands or involve the production of hormones are referred to as endocrine tumors or endocrine neoplasms. Some of the major types of endocrine tumors are thyroid cancer, adrenal cancer and pituitary tumors. Thyroid cancer originates in the cells of the thyroid gland and can include types such as papillary, follicular, medullary, and anaplastic thyroid cancer.
