Prof Miyauchi\u2019s topic was \u201cToward best management of thyroid cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AOTA has been giving Prize Lecture Awards since 1980.\u00a0 Through the years, the Prize Lectures came under various names as defined by the sponsors.

Additionally he discovered a new pathological entity of thyroid cancer: Intrathyroidal epithelial thymoma (ITET) \/ CASTLE, and found the route of acute suppurative thyroiditis and named it pyriform sinus fistula.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof Akira Miyauchi of Japan delivered the 2015 NAGATAKI-FUJIFILM Prize Lecture during the 15th International Thyroid Congress held in the Walt Disney World Swan &amp; Dolphin Resort in Orlando, Florida, USA.
