A comprehensive prediction model for central lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis: BRAF may not be a valuable predictor
Male, maximum diameter > 10mm, multifocal tumors, irregular margin, and lower TR-Ab level have significant predictive value for CLNM in PTC patients with HT. Meanwhile, BRAF mutation may not have a valuable predictive role for CLNM in these cases. The nomogram constructed offers a convenient and valuable tool for clinicians to determine surgical decision and prognostication for patients.
