Abstract

Introduction. Prevalence of the lymph node metastases of central neck compartment in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and its correlation with regional metastatic remains high. There are pros and cons on central neck dissection which is thought to solve the problem. Selection of appropriate patient to undergo central neck dissection is then essential. Thus, predictive factors were very useful in such selection, and we run a study aimed to find out the clinicopathological predictive factors for metastases of central compartment in subjects treated in Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. Method. Data of 62 cN0 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) subjects who underwent central neck dissection were collected consecutively and retrospectively studied. The correlations between clinicopathological factors such as age. Gender, tumor size, extra thyroid extension. Distant metastasis, completeness of resection, histopathology variant, lymphovascular invasion and central compartment metastases were the variables analyzed. Chi square. Fischer exact and stratification test were used. Significance found if p value of <0.05 with 95% confidence interval. Results. In this study, the prevalencein our hospital is 20.9%. The clinicopathological factors that statistically showed significance were the positive lymphovascular invasion (OR=14.40; p<0.05), tall cell variant (OR= 14.00; p <0.05), positive extra thyroid extension (OR=10.44; p<0.05) and age ≥45 years (OR= 9.47; p <0.05). Lymphovascular invasion showed a higher OR (OR=14.40). Conclusion. The lymphovascular invasion, tall cell variant, extra thyroidal extension and age might be the predictors for central compartment lymph node metastases in cN0 PTC patients. However, lymphovascular invasion has the highest risk factor for central neck compartment metastases.

Abstract

Aim: to provide additional information regarding the clinicopathological characteristics of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC). Methods: Fifty patient with PTC were reviewed to determine prognostic factors such as age, gender, size of tumor and histologic variant. BRAF V600E mutation was detected by immunohistochemical staining and assessed with H score. Result: BRAF V600E mutations were detected in 17 (34%) cases. There were seven cases with extrathyroidal extension (ETE) p 0,04, 11 cases with lymph node metastasis (LNM) p < 0,001, and 8 cases with tall cell variant p 0,047.The cases with positive BRAF V600E mutation had mean age of 44.71 years, and the size of the tumor between 0.1-4cm. Six cases of them are male and 11 female.Conclusion: There were significant relationships between BRAF V600E mutation with ETE, LNM, and tall cell variant. There was no significant relationship between BRAF V600E mutation, either with age, gender, or size of the tumor. BRAF V600E immunohistochemical examination can be performed as additional investigation for PTC patients.
