ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in obese children and adolescents.Methods:From Jan 2012 to Dec 2015, 59 school-age PTC children and adolescents admitted to Tianjin First Central Hospital and Tianjin Medical University Tumor Hospital were recruited for retrospective case-control study. By using the chi-square test, the clinicopathological characteristics of obese children and adolescents with papillary thyroid carcinoma were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the factors significantly related to the recurrence.Results:Compared with patients of normal weight, overweight and obese patients were older (χ 2=4.250, P=0.039), and had multifocal tumors (χ 2=5.281, P=0.022) and higher recurernce rate (χ 2=4.861, P=0.027) .Compared with normal-weight children and adolescents with PTC, overweight or obese children and adolescents with PTC significantly had higher recurrence rate (χ 2=4.466, P=0.035); In addition, tumor diameters >1 cm (χ 2=5.453, P=0.020) and patients with multifocal tumors (χ 2=7.218, P=0.007) were also more likely to suffer recurrence. Conclusion:Among children and adolescent patients with papillary thyroid cancer, obesity is significantly related to multifocal tumors and higher recurernce rate.
