Management of DTC involves a total thyroidectomy, with possible central and lateral neck dissection if there are clinical lymph node involvement, except for low-risk lesions that are unifocal, intrathyroidal, node-negative and measuring less than 1 cm in size. Radioactive iodine ablation of any remnant thyroid tissue may follow a total thyroidectomy depending on the risk stratification of the patient3. As for any cancer, management of thyroid cancer involves long-term surveillance for early detection of disease recurrence3.
