Evaluation of Central Compartment Dissection Without Thyroidectomy
Evaluation of Central Compartment Dissection Without Thyroidectomy
In accordance with the current guidelines,papillary thyroid microcarcinoma such as turmo
 invasive nerve or trachea, requires total thyroidectomy for follow-up iodine-131 treatment.In
 the course of clinical work, if the patient can achieve R0 resection, most of the patients do
 not need iodine-131 treatment,Therefore, there is no need to continue total thyroidectomy.To
 evaluate the practicable, thoroughness and Clinical value of bilateral central compartment
 dissection while preserve contrary thyroid glands.

 complications and the thoroughness of the operation were evaluated, thus Clinical value of
 bilateral central compartment dissection with preserve contrary thyroid glands were ananlyed.
