Abstract Objective/Hypothesis: The role of central neck dissection (CND) remains
controversial in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Study Design: Systematic review and …

Background/Purpose: Young patients with differentiated thyroid cancer typically present with
regional lymph node involvement (60% to 80%), and 10% to 20% have distant metastases …

Background: The well recognized prognostic factors in differentiated carcinoma of the
thyroid are age, grade, extracapsular extension, distant metastasis, and size of the tumor …

Background. We have previously described prognostic factors in differentiated carcinoma of
this thyroid gland relating to age, size and extrathyroid extension of the tumor, histologic …

Hypothesis To investigate the impact of total thyroidectomy on the rate of completion
thyroidectomy for incidentally found thyroid cancer in euthyroid multinodular goiter. Design A …

Papillary (PTC) and follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) are known as differentiated thyroid
carcinoma (DTC). Nevertheless, according to the UICC/AJCC (TNM) classification PTC and …

Background Numerous prognostic factors have been studied for survival in patients with
papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), although there are few multivariate studies that include …

Background The prognosis of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is usually
favorable; however, a subset of patients can develop local recurrence or distant metastases …

Lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma increases the morbidity of treatment
and the risk of local regional relapse and may also affect cure rates and survival. Factors that …

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency
ablation (RFA) and ethanol ablation (EA) for treating locally recurrent thyroid cancer …
