Introduction We aimed to determine influence of surgeon volume on (1) frequency of
appropriate initial surgery for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and (2) completeness of …

Background The optimal extent of surgery for differentiated thyroid cancer may not be well
recognized initially. Identification of intermediate-risk features on surgical pathology may …

Background There has been an increased use of total thyroidectomy (TT), including in the
management of benign thyroid diseases. We sought to compare the risk of complications …

Background: The extent of thyroidectomy for low-risk well-differentiated thyroid cancer
(WDTC) remains controversial. Historically, total thyroidectomy (TT) has been recommended …

Abstract Background The 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines
recommended that low-risk, differentiated thyroid cancers (DTC) between 1 and 4 cm may …

Background Although the surgeon-volume relationship is well documented for
thyroidectomy, less is known about central neck and lateral neck dissections. The aim of this …

There is a general consensus that total or near-total thyroidectomy is the optimal treatment
for patients with high risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), but the optimal extent of …

The majority of patients who present with well differentiated thyroid cancer will require
surgery, but decisions on the appropriate primary procedure will depend on information …

There has been a long debate about the optimal surgical management of differentiated
thyroid cancer. It has focused on the extent of thyroidectomy, with recommendations ranging …

Background The extent of thyroid surgery remains controversial for differentiated thyroid
cancers (DTCs) that measure more than 1 cm but are not considered high risk. This study …
