Fig. 3From: Analysis of risk factors and prognosis in differentiated thyroid cancer with focus on minimal extrathyroidal extensionBar charts showing the recurrence rate for patients with tumors showing minimal extrathyroidal extension and their matching partners with tumors confined to the thyroid gland. No statistically significant differences were observed for the rate of local (p = 0.53) and nodal (p = 1.0) recurrence. TCT: tumor confined to the thyroid gland; M-ETE: minimal extrathyroidal extensionBack to article page
