Replication Data for: Current Surgical Treatment of Intermediate Risk Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: A Systematic Review Guo, Michael Y.; Wiseman, Jacob J; Wiseman, Sam M

Description

Surgical treatment of thyroid cancer has become less aggressive but for many patients, the threshold for performing total thyroidectomy (TT), as opposed to thyroid lobectomy (TL), has remained unclear. Current American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines encourage more individualization of treatment options, which necessitates explicit review of the pros and cons of the different options with patients. This review focuses on the extent of surgery for treatment of intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid cancer, restricted to relevant literature available after publication of the 2015 ATA guidelines.
