Data are limited regarding the association between tumor lymphovascular invasion and
survival for patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). This study sought to examine …

Background Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is an established adverse prognostic factor in
many cancers, however, there are few studies assessing its significance in papillary thyroid …

Purpose Presence of venous vascular invasion is a criterion of intermediate risk of
recurrence in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). However, the presence and type of …

Background The clinical impact of vascular invasion in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC) is
not well understood. Our aim was to determine if there was an association between vascular …

Background The prognostic importance of vascular invasion has not been extensively
studied in patients with papillary thyroid cancer. Objective To determine whether the …

Introduction Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is associated with disease recurrence and
compromised survival in patients with thyroid cancer. Nonetheless, LVI is not identifiable on …

Background Central lymph node metastasis (LNM) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is
common. But the association between primary tumor characteristics and specific features of …

Objective: To investigate the related factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM), especially for
high volume LNM (> 5 metastatic lymph nodes) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) …

Importance Lymph node metastases are common in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), yet the
impact of nodal metastases on survival remains unclear. Lymph node density (LND) is the …

Objective: This study evaluated whether primary tumour characteristics are associated with
specific features of metastatic lymph nodes in papillary thyroid carcinoma patients. Method …
