Introduction Central lymph node status in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) plays an
important role in treatment decision-making clinically, however, it is not easy to predict …

Objectives We aimed to determine the predictive factors for central compartment lymph node
metastasis (LNM) in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). Design and patients We …

Background Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) generally is a cancer with excellent
prognosis, but the term “cancer” sounds severe and harsh, which can elicit emotional and …

Objective: To evaluate the risk factors of central lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid
microcarcinoma. Method: Published articles about papillary thyroid microcarcinoma were …

dissection (pCND) in patients with clinically node-negative (cN0) papillary thyroid …

Purpose s: To quantitatively predict the risk of neck lymph node metastasis for unilateral and
bilateral papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMC) that may guide individual treatment …
