Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation of of lymph node metastasis rate ( LR) with postoperative recurrence and prognosis in patients with thyroid papillary carcinoma (PTC). Methods From January 2010 to June 2013,the clinical data of sixty-two patients with PTC in Baoshan Branch,Shanghai First People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the LR, patients were divided into low LR (<25%) group(38 cases),high LR(≥25%) group (24 cases). The clinical pathological characteristics, postoperative recurrence and 5-year survival rate of the two groups was compared,and the influence factors of prognosis were analyzed. Results There was significant difference in LR among patients with different ages,numbers of lesions,lesion diameters,TNM stages and numbers of lymph node metastasis (P<0. 05);compared with high LR group,the recurrence in low LR group was obviously reduced(15. 8% vs. 41. 7%), and 5-year survival rate was significantly increased ( 92. 1% vs. 63. 0%) ( P<0. 05) . LR and TNM stage were the independent risk factors of prognosis in PTC patients,and age was independent protection factor (HR=1. 587,1. 714,0. 617,P<0. 05). Conclusion LR can be used as one of postoperative recurrence and prognosis evaluation indicators of PTC.
