Papillary thyroid cancer (TC) is the most common TC subtype with a global incidence of 80-90% and an annual rate of increase of 5% in the last ten years. Papillary TC has the peculiar tendency to spread to the central and lateral lymph nodes (LNs) of the neck, and recurrence occurs in 60-75% of cases. The most affected site is the central compartment. Total thyroidectomy with radical dissection achieved the best results for differentiated TC with LN involvement, with a complication rate of 6%. Classic radical dissection is an effective surgical approach when performed by experienced surgeons in cases in which there is a good knowledge of local anatomy, decreasing recurrence and improving survival.

THE EVALUATION OF SHORT AND LONG-TERM QUALITY OF LIFE IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING THYROIDECTOMY DUE TO BENIGN OR MALIGNANT DISEASES.
Acta Endocrinol (Buchar)
January 2025
Health Sciences University "Dr. Abdurrahman Yurtaslan" Oncology Training and Research Hospital, Department of General Surgery, Ankara, Turkey.
Context: In patients undergoing thyroidectomy for malignant disease, lower quality of life scores were observed in the early postoperative period compared to those undergoing thyroidectomy for benign causes.
Objective: Thyroid gland diseases are commonly encountered in society. This study presents health-related quality of life differences in thyroidectomies performed for benign and malignant diseases and the factors affecting this.
EFFICACY AND PROGNOSIS IN PATIENTS WITH PAPILLARY THYROID CANCER WITH POSTOPERATIVE PREABLATIVE STIMULATED THYROGLOBULIN ABOVE 10 NG/ML AFTER INITIAL THERAPY WITH RADIOIODINE.

The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology of China - Department of Nuclear Medicine, Hefei, Anhui, China.
Objective: Few prognostic analyses have been conducted for papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) patients with preablative stimulated Tg >10 ng/mL. We investigated the therapeutic responses and prognosis of these patients after the initial radioiodine (RAI) therapy.
Methods: We retrospectively assessed 256 patients with PTC who underwent RAI remnant ablation after total thyroidectomy, and all presTg levels were >10 ng/mL.
Decreased circulating levels of angiopoietin - 1 (Ang-1) are associated with the presence of multinodular goiter or differentiated thyroid cancer.

Department of Physiology, Medical School, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Greece.
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the presence of benign or malignant nodular thyroid disease affects levels of circulating angiogenesis cytokines.
Methods: In this study we investigated levels of angiopoietin - 1 and -2 (Ang-1 and Ang-2 respectively), vascular endothelial growth factor -A (VEGF-A), galectin-3 (Gal-3), urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and plasminogen activation inhibitor - 1 (PAI-1) in 40 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), 45 with thyroid papillary microcarcinoma (mPTC), 53 patients with multinodular goiter (MNG) and 58 controls. Six months after surgery 28 patients resubmitted blood samples.

In this article, we aim to demonstrate that thyroid carcinoma can metastasize to the small bowel. This case report involves a 66-year-old woman who underwent total thyroidectomy surgery in 2019, with histopathology revealing a 3A undifferentiated thyroid cancer. She presented with symptoms of bowel obstruction, including abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer, with considerable variability in its clinical presentation and prognosis. Recent studies have focused on the relationship between its clinicopathological characteristics and inflammatory biomarkers, particularly the preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Our aim was to investigate the correlation between NLR and the clinicopathological features of PTC.
