With the increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer in recent years, more and more people have begun to pay attention to the prevention and treatment of thyroid cancer. Thyroid ultrasound screening has become one of the mandatory options for cancer screening in young people, especially young women. However, for patients who have been diagnosed with thyroid cancer, how should they deal with this cancer threat?In 2016, the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association released the "Diagnosis of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and the Chinese Expert Consensus", which may provide useful guidance for patients with thyroid nodules.
Papillary thyroid carcinoma is a common type of thyroid cancer that occurs more often in young women. If certain risk factors for thyroid nodules are found, surgery may be considered**. These risk factors include:
1.Tumor diameter greater than 1 cm;2.Lymph node metastases;
3.Tumors grow rapidly;
4.Presence of family history or genetic factors;
5.Thyroid nodules interfere with normal life or psychological conditions.
For patients with micropapillary thyroid carcinoma who have these high-risk factors, surgery** is the preferred option. Surgery** mainly includes total thyroidectomy or partial thyroidectomy. The specific surgical method needs to be selected according to the patient's actual situation and the doctor's recommendation. It is important to note that surgery for papillary thyroid carcinoma** has certain risks and complications, and patients should fully understand the risks and benefits of surgery when considering surgery** and communicate fully with their doctors.
In addition to surgery**, patients may also consider postoperative adjuvants** to reduce the risk. Adjuvant methods include thyroid hormone suppression, radioactive iodine, etc. In addition, patients should have regular follow-up visits after the end of ** in order to detect ** or new thyroid nodules in time and take corresponding measures.
In short, for the diagnosis and development of papillary thyroid carcinoma, the "Diagnosis of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and the Chinese Expert Consensus" issued by the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association in 2016 provides valuable guidance and suggestions. Patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma with high-risk factors should be considered for surgery** and regular follow-up after the end of the **. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the prevention of thyroid cancer, detect thyroid nodules in time through thyroid ultrasound screening and other means, and take corresponding measures to reduce the risk of thyroid cancer.
