First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study aims to create a simple tool (a nomogram) that doctors can use before surgery to predict how difficult a specific type of thyroid cancer surgery (transoral and submental thyroidectomy) will be. Researchers will study 500 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer to find which factors make the surgery harder, such as longer operation time or higher risk of nerve injury. The goal is to help surgeons plan better and improve patient safety.
