Predictive Factors of Central-Compartment Lymph Node Metastasis for Clinical N0 Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma With Strap Muscle Invasion

Predictive Factors of Central-Compartment Lymph Node Metastasis for Clinical N0 Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma With Strap Muscle Invasion

Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients with anterior extrathyroidal extension (ETE) involving the strap muscle have a relatively better prognosis than those with posterior gross ETE involving the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Whether prophylactic central-compartment lymph node dissectio...
