Abstract

Objective: to evaluate clinical outcomes and some features associated with the survival of recurrent thyroid cancer. Subjects and Methods: a retrospective combined with a prospective cohort study of 50 recurrent thyroid cancer patients treated by surgery at Hanoi Medical University Hospital from October 2017 to August 2021. Results: All patients had undergone radical surgery, the rate of total thyroidectomy with neck dissection and bilateral neck dissection were  33.3% and 66.7% respectively. Post-operation complications occurred in 27% of cases, almost in the first week. Treatment with radioactive iodine after surgery was performed in 63% of patients. The median follow-up period was 35 months, a maximum of 86 months. The overall survival rate was 100%, the 5-year DFS rate was 85.1%. The 5-year DFS times were shorter in the invaded, over 45 year olds and radioiodine refractoried. Conclusion: Surgery of recurrent thyroid carcinoma is safe and less complication..
