The clinical value of Delphian and pre-tracheal lymph nodes in predicting lateral lymph nodes metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma
Delphian and pre-tracheal lymph node metastasis was associated positively with the risk of lateral lymph node metastasis. For patients without clinical lateral lymph node metastasis, the Delphian and pre-tracheal lymph node could be considered to harvest as the first step in a thyroidectomy to facilitate further conduct of the operation.
