Sonographic Characteristics of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma With Coexistent Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis in the Preoperative Prediction of Central Lymph Node Metastasis

Sonographic Characteristics of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma With Coexistent Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis in the Preoperative Prediction of Central Lymph Node Metastasis

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of the sonographic characteristics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) for predicting central lymph node metastasis (CLNM). One hundred thirty-three patients who underwent thyroidectomy and central cervical l...
