Endocrine Surgery Factors Influencing Central Neck Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients with Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinoma
Purpose: A papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) measures 1 cm or less in diameter. The diagnosis, and thus the apparent incidence, of PTMC has recently increased owing to an increase in the detection of subclinical small and low-risk carcinomas with ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology. However, central neck lymph node metastasis (CLNM) can occur in patients with PTMC. We eval...
متن کاملTo Identify Predictors of Central Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients with Clinically Node-Negative Conventional Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Objective. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors associated with central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in patients with clinically node-negative conventional papillary thyroid carcinoma (cN0 CPTC). Methods. A total of 190 cN0 CPTC patients who underwent thyroidectomy with prophylactic central neck dissection (pCND) in the Department of General Surgery at Guangdong General Hospit...
متن کاملLymph Node Dissection for Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
Lymph node metastases in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) have a wide spectrum of clinical significance. Several variables are taken under consideration when trying to decide on the optimal management of patients with DTC. Routine prophylactic central and/or lateral lymph node dissection is not advocated with exception of central neck dissection for locally advanced tumors. When regarding re...
متن کاملPatterns and clinical significance of cervical lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid cancer patients with Delphian lymph node metastasis
Although the roles of Delphian lymph node (DLN) metastasis in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) have been previously reported, there are still limited data on correlations of clinicopathologic factors with DLN metastasis and unique patterns of cervical node subsite metastasis in PTC patients with DLN metastasis. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 320 patients with a diagnosis of PTC wh...
متن کاملPreoperative predictors of lateral neck lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
Lateral lymph node metastasis (LNM) is not uncommon in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). Our present study aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with lateral LNM in PTMC.We retrospectively collected data pertaining to 366 patients with PTMC who underwent surgery at our center from 2010 to 2015. These patients were divided into the following 2 groups: a lateral LNM-positive gro...
