Abstract Objective: Few studies have evaluated the influence of HT and Multifocality on central lymph node metastases(CLNM) and lateral lymph node metastases(LLNM) of PTC. The present study focused on risk factors for lymph node metastasis in PTC according to the presence of HT or multifocality. Materials and methods:1413 patients were identified.The relationship between HT or multifocality and lymph nodemetastasis was analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression, ROC curves were constructed to show the predictive effect of each variable on the target outcome.Results: The PTCs with HT were more likely to be multifocal.(40.0% versus 17.5%,P ＜0.001). Compared to MPTC without HT, MPTC with HT showed a lower number of metastatic CLNs and LLNs (P < 0.05). HT was identifified as an independent protective factor for CLNM in all PTC patients (OR, 0.480; 95% CI, 0.359-0.643; P< .001) and in MPTC patients (OR, 0.094; 95% CI, 0.044-0.204; P < 0.001), the multicocality was independent risk factors for CLNM(OR, 2.316; 95% CI, 1.667-3.217; P< 0.001) and LLNM(OR, 2.004; 95% CI, 1.469-2.733; P< 0.001).The variables concluded HT or MPTC were screened to predict CLNM in all patients, CLNM in patients with MPTC and LLNM in all patients (AUCs: 0.731, 0.843 and 0.696, respectively, P < 0.0001). The two type of diseases existed concurrently may result in the decrease of CLNM and LLNM, AUCs of ROC to predict CLNM and LLNM are 0.696 and 0.63(P<0.0001). Conclusions: Our study identified multifocality as an independent risk factor predicting CLNM and LLNM in PTC patients. HT was proven to be a protective factor that reduced the CLNM risk in all patients and in patients with MPTC. The existence of both type of diseases can result in the reduction of CLNM and LLNM.

Pediatric Thyroid Cancer

Objective: The incidence of pediatric thyroid cancer is relatively low compared to the disease in adults. This study aims to present the data in our institution on pediatric thyroid cancer patients, with particular emphasis on the risk factors of recurrence together with treatment outcomes. Subjects and Methods: Between January 2000 and July 2018, patients <20 years who were diagnosed with thyroid carcinoma and primarily treated with surgery at a major large-volume tertiary medical center specializing in thyroid cancer were enrolled. A total of 83 patients were eligible for this study. Results: The majority of the studied patients were girls and adolescents (age ≥13 years). Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) was the most common pathology (n = 74). PTC tumors >1 cm showed higher rate of lymph node metastasis and extrathyroidal extension than tumors ≤1 cm. All patients survived with nine PTC patients who displayed treatment failure. Age, tumor size, multifocality, lateral lymph node metastasis, and postoperative thyroglobulin levels were significant prognosticators for disease recurrence. Conclusion: Pediatric thyroid cancer is relatively rare and should be considered a specific disease entity with respect to the thyroid cancer in adults, since there are several distinctive characteristics.
