摘要
甲状腺乳头状癌是甲状腺癌中最常见的病理类型,具有恶性程度低、进展缓慢、病程长、预后好等生物学特点,但易发生颈侧区淋巴结转移.甲状腺乳头状癌颈侧区淋巴结转移与年龄、性别、肿瘤大小、肿瘤部位、被膜受累/腺外侵犯、多灶性、中央区转移淋巴结数量等因素相关.了解甲状腺乳头状癌颈侧区淋巴结转移的影响因素对甲状腺乳头状癌颈淋巴结清扫范围的确定及其适应证具有重要的临床意义.
Papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common pathology type of thyroid carcinoma with the following biological characteristics:low malignancy,slow progress,longer duration,good prognosis,but it is prone to lymph node metastasis.Lateral lymph node metastasis relates with patients' age,sex,tumor size,tumor location,capsular invasion/extra-thyroidal extension,muli-focality and the number of positive central lymph nodes.Understanding the influencing factors of the lateral lymph node metastasis has important clinical significance for determining the lymph node dissection scope and the indications for the patients with thyroid carcinoma.
