The Prediction of Metastases of Lateral Cervical Lymph Node in Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma

PurposeDevelopment and validation of a nomogram for the prediction of lateral lymph node metastasis (LLNM) in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical features of patients with MTC in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 201...
