Abstract

Purpose: Serum level of thyroglobulin (TG) was used to monitor for recurrence or progression of differentiated thyroid cancer. The role of preoperative TG measurement is more ambiguous. We aimed this study to evaluate preoperative TG level and relative with other factors in differentiated thyroid cancer. Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional review; Data collected included demographics, preoperative TG, thyroid tumor size, cervical lymph node metastasis, and cancer stage. Results: The mean serum thyroglobulin concentration was 49,02 ± 78,71ng/ml. There were 33,3% of patients who had increasing serum thyroglobulin concentration. Increasing in preoperative serum thyroglobulin was statistically significant to thyroid tumor size, stage T with p < 0.01, had not been associated with cervical lymph node metastasis and combined thyroiditis. Conclusion: Preoperative TG level correlated significantly with the size of the primary tumor and T stage.
