- Uncle Tom typically the large size of These tumors, the Extent of resection is limited When the diagnosis is made. Despite the generally large size of these tumors, the extent of resection is limited when the diagnosis is made.
- Rather than performing complete thyroidectomy, thyroid tissue excision as much as possible Without Attempting resection of all structures Adjacent Because of the high Incidence of Postoperative morbidity (eg, vocal cord paralysis, esophageal fistula). Instead of performing total thyroidectomy, resection of both thyroid tissue as possible without attempting resection of all adjacent structures due to the high incidence of postoperative morbidity (eg, vocal cord paralysis, esophageal fistula). Although a Greater Extent of resection May be Slightly Associated with longer survival, this hypothesis is Not Confirmed. Despite a greater extent of resection may be associated with a slightly longer survival, this hypothesis is not confirmed.
