Methods Retrospective investigation was carried out in 38 cases of neck dissection for thyroid carcinoma patients who received nonstandard operation during 1997 to 2005, and 32 cases were treated with neck dissection. Results Pathological results confirmed there were 73.68 % with residual tumor, positive rate of thyroid was 47.38 %, and that cervical lymph node was 57.89 %. Conclusion The residual rate of cervical lymph nodes of reoperated patients with thyroid carcinoma was relatively higher, so neck dissection for thyroid carcinoma who received nonstandard operation was necessary.
