Introduction: Non-total thyroidectomy (non-TTx) is a widely accepted operative procedure for low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). PTC patients preoperatively diagnosed with unifocal disease are often revealed as having multifocal foci by microscopy. The present study determined whether or not patients with clinically unifocal, but pathologically multifocal non-high-risk PTC treated with non-TTx have an increased risk of a poor prognosis compared to those with pathologically unifocal PTC.
Materials And Methods: PTC patients diagnosed as unifocal preoperatively who underwent non-TTx were multifocal in 61 and unifocal in 266 patients microscopically. Oncologic event rates were compared between pathologically multifocal and unifocal PTC patients.
Results: Pathological multifocality was associated with positive clinical lymph node metastasis (cN1) (odds ratio [OR] 4.01, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.91-8.04) and positive pathological lymph node metastasis (pN1) in > 5 nodes (OR 3.68, 95% CI: 1.60-8.49). No patients died from PTC. There was no significant difference in the disease-free survival rate, remnant thyroid disease-free survival rate, lymph node disease-free survival rate, or distant disease-free survival rate between the two groups. Recurrence in pathologically multifocal PTC patients was locoregional in all cases and able to be salvaged by reoperation. Cox proportional hazard model analyses showed no significant difference in recurrence rates with regard to pathological multifocality and cN or number of pNs.
Conclusion: The prognosis of PTC with pathological multifocality treated by non-TTx was not inferior to that of unifocal PTC. Immediate completion thyroidectomy is not necessary when microscopic foci are proven.
