Popis: | Background The presence of microscopic extra-nodal extension (ENE) may increase locoregional recurrence (LRR) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). We aimed to evaluate the association between microscopic ENE, response to initial therapy and LRR risk following total thyroidectomy, therapeutic neck dissection, and radioactive iodine (RAI) ablation in PTC. Methods Of the 369 eligible PTC patients, 264 (71.5%) did not have microscopic ENE (group I) while 105 (28.5%) did (group II). All presented with clinical nodal metastasis (cN1) and underwent therapeutic neck dissection and RAI ablation. Biochemical incompleteness meant post-ablation stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg) >10 ng/ml. Multivariate analyses were conducted to identify independent factors for LRR. Results Biochemical incompleteness was significantly more common group II (43.8% vs. 17.4%, P |
