Abstract:
With the increasing number of complex and difficult thyroid cancer patients, the traditional medical model is difficult to solve the problem of diagnosis and treatment of patients optimally. In recent years, multidisciplinary team (MDT) model is applied clinically. For complex and difficult thyroid cancer diseases, the model can play a multidisciplinary advantage and provide more personalized and accurate diagnosis and treatment scheme for patients. The diagnosis and treatment of complex and difficult thyroid cancer involve thyroid surgery, otolaryngology, thoracic surgery, anesthesiology, endocrinology, nuclear medicine, radiotherapy, oncology, ultrasound, imaging, pathology and other disciplines. Based on the important role of MDT in diagnosis, treatment, nursing, postoperative management and clinical research of thyroid cancer, as well as the challenges and difficulties faced in implementation of MDT, the status and progress of multi-disciplinary comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer will be systematically elaborated in the paper.
