Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • (1) Age 18-70 years old, ECOG score 0-2;
  • (2) Patients with the maximum diameter of unilateral thyroid nodules ≤4.0cm by ultrasound, papillary thyroid carcinoma diagnosed by preoperative cytology (Bethesda grade VI) or intraoperative freezing, and planned to undergo thyroid lobectomy;
  • (3) No clinical lymph node metastasis (cN0);No extrathyroidal extension, and the number of pathological lymph node micrometastasis (\<0.2cm) was ≤5.
  • (4) no serious medical diseases and major organ dysfunction, such as blood routine, liver, kidney, heart, lung function; No previous history of other head and neck malignancies, no history of neck radiation, no history of deep neck surgery (skin mass excision except clinical);

  • (3) Cervical lymph node metastasis was evaluated before surgery. Cytological aspiration and Tg eluent determination were performed on suspicious lymph nodes. If cytology was negative and Tg eluent was not higher than the normal range, it was not considered as exclusion criteria. The patients who were sent for intraoperative examination and showed metastasis were excluded.
  • (4) cytological aspiration or intraoperative freezing suspected non-papillary thyroid carcinoma (follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, poorly differentiated or undifferentiated carcinoma) or high-risk subtypes of papillary thyroid carcinoma (high cell type);
  • (5) pregnant or lactating women;
