To evaluate the prognosis of papillary microcarcinoma (PMC) of the thyroid.
Prospective study.
Teaching hospital, Italy.
89 patients treated for papillary micro carcinoma of thyroid and followed up for at least 6 years (range 6-12).
Total thyroidectomy and, for lymph node metastases, laterocervical lymphadenectomy.
Sex distribution, mode of onset of disease, diameter of tumour, histological type, histological stage, presence of lymph node metastases at the time of operation and type of operation.
When the disease presented with laterocervical lymph nodes it was histologically more aggressive and included follicular (n = 3) and sclerosing (n = 4) types.
Papillary microcarcinoma has an excellent prognosis if managed initially by total thyroidectomy.
评估甲状腺微小乳头状癌（PMC）的预后。
前瞻性研究。
意大利的教学医院。
89例接受甲状腺微小乳头状癌治疗且随访至少6年（6 - 12年）的患者。
全甲状腺切除术，对于有淋巴结转移的患者，行颈侧区淋巴结清扫术。
性别分布、疾病发病方式、肿瘤直径、组织学类型、组织学分期、手术时淋巴结转移情况及手术类型。
当疾病伴有颈侧区淋巴结时，其组织学上更具侵袭性，包括滤泡型（n = 3）和硬化型（n = 4）。
如果最初通过全甲状腺切除术进行治疗，甲状腺微小乳头状癌的预后良好。
