Abstract:
Objective To discuss the effective factors and metastasis rules of cervical lymph node of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma,aimed to provide references for indications and range of lymph node dissection.Methods Reviewed the clinical information and pathological material of primary treatment of 1 180 cases of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma patients in China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from June 2008 to December 2011 by retrospective analysis,futher summared cervical lymph node metastasis rules and effective factors.Results The lymph node metastasis rate of 1 180 patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma was 29.6%,which of these of the central and lateral region were 26.4% and 15.2%.Central region lymph nodes metastasis rates in male and female were respectively 44.9%,21.8% (P < 0.05),and were 39.8%,9.0% in lateral region (P < 0,01).Lymph node metastasis rates of patients whose age ≤45years old and >45 years old were 30.3%,17.9% (P <0.05).The lymph mode metastasis rate which diameter of tumour(D) ≤0.5 cm or 0.5 cm < D ≤ 1 cm in central region were 20.2%,33.2% (P < 0.05).The lymph node metastasis rate of single and more nidi respectively were 15.7%,45.0% in central region.The lymph node metastasis rate of tumors invasion or not were 44.4% and 14.2% in central region (P <0.05).The metastasis rates were 45.5% and 4.3% in the lateral region when the lymph node infringe or not in central region.Conclusions Lymph node metastasis happens relatively more common in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma patients with the factors such as male,young age,multiple nidi,long diameter of tumor and invasion of tumor envelope.So when doctors establish the indications and range of lymph node dissection,it's need to pay attention to the high risk factors seriously which effect lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma,and establish the lymph node dissection strategy individually.
