Conditions

Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinoma

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • mRNA expression pattern by microarray analysis

    mRNA expression differences between papillary thyroid microcarcinoma without lateral neck node metastasis and the one with lateral neck node metastasis. (The outcome will be measured within 24-hour after surgical removement using papillary thyroid microcarcinoma tissue.)

    24-hour after surgical removement

Study Arms (2)
