No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Optimal surgical technique for neck dissection (LND) in thyroid carcinoma remains a subject of debate. Fascial ND (FND) implies the removal of the superficial and middle layers of the deep cervical fascia en bloc with lymph-nodes containing fibro-fatty tissue (levels IIa-Vb and VI-VII for cN1b patients). This retrospective cohort study was designed to compare FND with standard, non-fascial, selective ND (SND).
