Clinical effect of Lymph Node Dissection in the Lateral Neck for the treatment of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: Endoscopic Thyroidectomy versus Open Surgery

Objective: To compare the clinical effect, safety, and cosmetic effect of lymph node dissection via endoscopic thyroidectomy open surgery in treatment papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
 Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 86 patients with PTC admitted to Baoding No.1 Central Hospital from January 2020 December 2021. The enrolled were divided into (n = 34) 52) groups based different surgical methods. Further comparison conducted indexes, postoperative complications, changes oxidative stress numerical score system (NSS) satisfaction, scar length, recurrence rate between two groups.
 Results: operation time longer, intraoperative blood loss lower for group than those (P < 0.05). indexes significantly better (P< complication that At six months after surgery, length shorter, NSS higher 0.05).
 Conclusion: Endoscopic is safe effective, mild response, fewer good effect.
