Chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD) is a rare chronic immunological photo-dermatosis resulting in pruritic eczematous eruption on sun-exposed skin to ultraviolet (UV) light.

Minimum erythema dosing and patch testing are diagnostic tools of CAD.

There is still no good method for clinicians to judge whether a patient needs LN-prRLN resection before surgery, and we also wanted to establish a new scoring system to determine whether patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma require LN-prRLN resection before surgery.
Patients And Methods: There were 482 patients with right or bilateral PTC who underwent thyroid gland resection from December 2015 to December 2017 recruited as study subjects.
