Summary

Objective: To investigate the incidence of lateral neck node occult metastasis and to show the usefulness of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in the detection of lateral neck node metastasis in thyroid carcinoma, the investigators used a radioisotope to detect the sentinel lymph node.

Summary Background Data: Although occult lymph node metastasis to the lateral neck compartment is common in papillary thyroid carcinoma, the incidence and patterns of lateral neck node metastasis in papillary carcinoma are not known.
