carcinoma (PTC), but their synergistic effect is not well understood. We aimed to explore …

Background: Lymph nodal (LN) metastasis, classified as pN1b, is considered as an
independent poor prognostic factor for Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. However …

Introduction Lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is
associated with postoperative recurrence. Recently, most studies have focused on the …

Background: The aim of this study is to determine the prognostic factors which affect both
disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in thyroid papillary carcinoma with …

Background Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer,
and its incidence has increased. Lateral lymph node metastasis (LLNM) implies a worse …
