Abstract
A PTMC is defined as a thyroid papillary cancer that measures < or =10 mm in the greatest diameter. The detection rate for a PTMC has increased because of the worldwide use of high-resolution sonography and US-FNAB. We report a case of a 1-mm-diameter PTMC confirmed at thyroidectomy for which the cytologic diagnosis had an important role in deciding the extent of surgery (ie, either a total thyroidectomy or a hemithyroidectomy).Entities:
