20.500.12556/DiRROS-18860 Recurrence rate in regional lymph nodes in 737 patients with follicular or Hürthle cell neoplasms . Preoperative ultrasound (US) evaluation of central and lateral neck compartments is recommended for all patients undergoing a thyroidectomy for malignant or suspicious for malignancy cytologic or molecular findings. Our aim was to find out how frequent was recurrence in regional lymph nodes in patients with follicular or Hürthle cell neoplasm and usefulness of preoperative neck US investigation in patients with neoplasm. Patients and Methods. Altogether 737 patients were surgically treated because of follicular or Hürthle cell neoplasms from 1995 to 2014 at our cancer comprehensive center. Altogether 207 patients (163 females, 44 males; mean age 52 years) had thyroid carcinoma. Results. Carcinoma was diagnosed in follicular and Hürthle cell neoplasm in 143/428 and 64/309 of cases, respectively. A recurrence in regional lymph nodes occurred in 12/207 patients (6%) during a median follow-up of 55 months. Among patients with carcinoma a recurrence in regional lymph nodes was diagnosed in follicular and Hürthle cell neoplasms in 2% and 14%, respectively (p=0.002). Recurrence in regional lymph nodes was diagnosed in 3/428 (0.7%) of all patients with follicular neoplasm and 9/309 (3%) of all patients with Hürthle cell neoplasm. Recurrence in lymph nodes was diagnosed in 0.7% of patients with a preoperative diagnosis of follicular neoplasm and 3% of patients with a Hürthle cell neoplasm. A recurrence in regional lymph nodes is rare in patients with carcinoma and preoperative diagnosis of follicular neoplasm. ultrasonography thyroid neoplasms diagnosis pathology rak ščitnice diagnosticiranje patologija ultrasonografija true false true Association of Radiology and Oncology Ljubljana Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik by Authors Neznano 2024-04-30 12:20:44 2024-04-30 12:20:45 2024-05-01 03:58:15 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2016 0 0 str. 269-273, II no. 3 Vol. 50 Sep. 2016 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2016-09-01 616.4 1318-2099 10.1515/raon-2016-0025 2278779 https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/raon.2016.50.issue-3/raon-2016-0025/raon-2016-0025.xml?format=INT 1 4e9bd5ec-06db-11ef-a26d-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25819 RAZ_Vogrin_Andrej_2016.pdf RAZ_Vogrin_Andrej_2016.pdf 1 EE65333FFA3FC181C101AE880A6CD1C7 36497761638405298637e796b5754b97ac6c7bec4cce2814f8c9015026c3e3e4 9066c0b9-06db-11ef-a26d-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25820 Onkološki inštitut Ljubljana 0 0 0
