Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the rate of residual tumor after local resection of thyroid carcinoma,and provide theoretical basis to determine the indications for re-operation.Methods The clinical data of 56 patients,who had re-operation in our hospital after local resection of thyroid carcinoma,were summarized.Results As confirmed by pathology,the rate of residual tumor of patients was 42.8% at re-operation.When the tumor was larger than 4 cm,or smaller than 2 cm before the first operation,the residual tumor rate was 80% and 11.1% respectively.The residual tumor rate was 86.3% in patients with tumor invading thyroid capsule,14.7% in patients without capsule invasion,47.6% in patients who had only nodule resection,50% after ipsi-lateral partial lobectomy,and 12.5% after subtotal thyroidectomy.The sensitivity of finding residual tumor by CT and doppler ultrasound examiination before re-operation was 64.0% and 60.0% respectively,and the positive predictive value was 80.0% and 30.0% respectively.Conclusions The rate of residual tumor is high in patients with thyroid cancer operated by local resection.And it′s necessary to re-operation.The condition of tumor before the first operation and CT examination are significant for selection of patients to have re-operation.
