The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes for patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) treated at a single institution during a 162-month period and to determine which patients need aggressive treatment. Two hundred seventy-three patients with PTMC had subtotal or total thyroidectomy 1 prophylactic or therapeutic lymph node dissection. Clinical and histopathological characteristics of 273 patients were identified and statistically analyzed. The tumors were multifocal in 36.3 per cent of the patients with PTMCs. Fifty-six per cent had neck lymph node metastases at diagnosis. Large-sized tumor (over 5 mm), age older than 45 years, multifocality, bilaterality, and extrathyroidal extension were associated with subclinical central lymph node metastases. Ninety-six patients older than 45 years of age were upgraded from Stage I to III or IVA. Ten patients with lateral node recurrence or local recurrence in the residual thyroid had one or more risk factors. The high rates of multifocality and Level VI area subclinical lymph node metastasis were two important clinical and histopathological characteristics of PTMC. Patients who had one or more risk factors should receive more aggressive surgical management.

Congenital Cardiac Disease

AbstractThe number of adults with congenital cardiac disease continues to increase, and adult patients are now more numerous than paediatric patients. We sought to identify risk factors for perioperative death and report our results with surgical management of adult patients with congenital cardiac disease. We retrospectively analysed in-hospital data for 244 consecutive adult patients who underwent surgical treatment of congenital cardiac disease in our centre between January, 1998 and December, 2007. The mean patient age was 27.2 plus or minus 11.9 years, 29% were in functional class III or IV, and 25% were cyanosed. Of the patients, half were operated on for the first time. A total of 61% of patients underwent curative operations, 36% a reoperation after curative treatment, and 3% a palliative operation. Overall mortality was 4.9%. Predictive factors for hospital death were functional class, cyanosis, non-sinus rhythm, a history of only palliative previous operation(s), and an indication for palliative treatment. Functional class, cyanosis, type of initial congenital cardiac disease (single ventricle and double-outlet right ventricle), and only palliative previous operation were risk factors for prolonged intensive care stay (more than 48 hours). The surgical management of adult patients with congenital cardiac disease has improved during recent decades. These generally young patients, with a complex pathology, today present a low post-operative morbidity and mortality. Patients having undergone palliative surgery and reaching adulthood without curative treatment present with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Univentricular hearts and double-outlet right ventricles were associated with the highest morbidity.
