Core Tip |
Lymph node metastasis (LNM) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) has a certain regularity. The pathway of PTC LNM can guide selective lymph node dissection (LND) for clinical surgeons, thereby overcoming the drawbacks of prophylactic LND; accurate surgery can be used to not only radically dissect lymph nodes but also reduce the incidence of complications. The results of our retrospective study found that the LNM pathway of PTC has a certain regularity. Prelaryngeal LNM is a predictor of ipsilateral level-II LNM. Pretracheal and ipsilateral paratracheal LNM are predictors of ipsilateral level-III and level-IV LNM. Therefore, for unilateral cN0-PTC patients with a tumor diameter > 2 cm and pretracheal or ipsilateral paratracheal LNM, LND at ipsilateral level III and level IV must be considered. When there is a tumor in the upper third of the thyroid with prelaryngeal LNM, LND at level II, level III and level IV must be considered. |
