Background:
Papillary carcinomas of the thyroid that measure
Methods:
The author reviewed the results from all patients who underwent thyroid resection over a 65-month period and correlated the findings with clinical and cytologic information.
Results:
During the study period, a total of 720 resections were performed, and 210 papillary carcinomas were identified that were the reason for the excision. The mean size of these tumors decreased from 2.1 cm to 1.7 cm (P=0.018) over the period of the study, and the percentage of tumors measuring
Conclusions:
The size of papillary thyroid carcinomas that were resected at the author's institution decreased significantly, and carcinomas measuring
