Overview

Retrospective analysis reveals high-risk surgery leads to 79% locoregional control and 77% survival, suggesting careful patient selection.

Key Points

  • Most patients undergoing segmental tracheal resection for thyroid cancer achieve a 5-year locoregional control rate of 79%.
  • Among 120 patients with advanced thyroid cancer, the median follow-up was 4.6 years, indicating substantial post-surgery monitoring.
  • The common complications observed included tracheostomy tube placement (10%) and hematoma (7%), showcasing the surgery's risks.
  • Overall survival at 5 years was reported at 77%, highlighting the effectiveness of this complex procedure despite its high-risk nature.
