[Analysis of surgical treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma].
摘要
OBJECTIVE: To present the treatment results and to analyze the causes of recurrence in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma. METHODS: A retrospective review of 600 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma treated between 1994 and 1999 was conducted. The primary lesions were originated from the left lobe in 188 cases, the right lobe in 290 cases, the isthmus in 8 cases, and multicentric in 114 cases. From the 600 cases, 584 were well-differentiated and 16 poorly differentiated. TNM stage:385 cases of stage I, 37 cases of stage II, 17 cases of stage III, and 161 cases of stage IV. Three hundred and one patients was N1b stage. All patients received surgical treatment. Among them, 19 cases received radiotherapy, 71 received (131)I-therapy and one case received concomitant radiotherapy and (131)I-therapy. RESULTS: There were 94 recurrent cases. Twenty-seven cases died of recurrence, metastasis and other diseases. The overall 10-year survival rate was 93.2%. The overall 10 year survival rates of stage I, II, III, and IV patients were 99.1%, 94.7%, 93.8%, and 78.5%, respectively (P < 0.01). The 10-year survival rate of lower-age group (< 45 years) was 99.4% and higher-age group (≥ 45 years) 82.1% (P < 0.01). The 10-year survival rate of patients with trachea invasion was 66.5%, significantly lower than the 95.1% in patients without trachea invasion (P < 0.01). The 10-year survival rate of well-differentiated cases was 94.9%, significantly higher than the 38.9% in the poorly differentiated cases (P < 0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that the TNM stage, differentiation degree and the thorough going surgical operation were independent risk factors for the prognosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS: The TNM stage, differentiation degree and the thorough going surgical operation are independent risk factors for the prognosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma.
