    Lymph node metastases impact thyroid cancer prognosis. Systematic lymphadenectomy, guided by lymph node classification, improves survival and reduces recurrence in thyroid cancer patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Context:

    • The prognostic significance of lymph node metastases in thyroid cancer remains debated.
    • Recent multivariate analyses indicate lymph node involvement influences outcomes in papillary and medullary thyroid carcinoma.

    Purpose:

    • To establish a standardized lymphadenectomy approach based on the UICC lymph node classification.
    • To define lymph node compartments and recommend surgical strategies for thyroid cancer.

    Summary:

    • Identifies key lymph node compartments (cervicocentral, cervicolateral, mediastinal) based on metastasis frequency.
    • Recommends systematic cervicocentral lymphadenectomy for all thyroid cancers.
    • Advocates for systematic or selective cervicolateral and mediastinal lymphadenectomy based on metastasis extent, with a mandatory four-compartment lymphadenectomy for medullary thyroid carcinoma with positive nodes.

    Impact:

    • Gentle surgical techniques for systematic lymphadenectomy minimize complications.
    • Systematic lymphadenectomy can decrease recurrence rates and improve survival in thyroid cancer.
