Lymph node dissection in papillary thyroid carcinoma.
The management of papillary thyroid carcinoma continues to evolve. Although the debate over the extent of thyroidectomy has largely faded, the role of elective neck dissection in the surgical management of papillary thyroid cancer has become a topic of contention. The current standard of care for patients with papillary thyroid cancer includes total thyroidectomy and a therapeutic lymph node di...
متن کاملIs Prophylactic Central Compartment Lymph Node Dissection Necessary for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma? Is Prophylactic Central Compartment Lymph Node Dissection Necessary for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma?
The need for prophylactic central compartment lymph node dissection in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma continues to be a subject of ongoing debate. Regional lymph node metastases are a common finding with papillary thyroid carcinoma, with an incidence as high as 50% or more. With the widespread use of high resolution ultrasound and sensitive thyroglobulin assays, lymph node metastases...
متن کاملCarbon nanoparticle-guided central lymph node dissection in clinically node-negative patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Distinguishing the involved lymph nodes from other tissues during surgery is critical for lymph node dissection. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility by using carbon nanoparticles as guidance for lymph node dissection in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). METHODS Eighty-one patients were injected with carbon nanoparticles (carbon nanoparticle group)...
متن کاملThymectomy in central lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid cancer.
BACKGROUND Central lymph node dissection (CND) has been proposed in the treatment of patients affected by papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) with clinically negative neck lymph nodes. The procedure allows pathologic staging of lymph nodes of the central compartment and treatment of the micrometastases. By comparing bilateral and unilateral thymectomy during total thyroidectomy with central lymph no...
متن کاملLymph node dissection in papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Prospective randomized studies aimed at evaluating the different therapeutic protocols for the treatment of papillary or follicular carcinoma are lacking at the moment. Although total thyroidectomy is widely accepted, indication to locoregional lymphadenectomy is strongly debated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-four patients with papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma (45 papillary...
