Methods: the clinico-pathological data of 142 cases of thyroid micropapillary carcinoma were collected, the relationship between sex, age, tumor location, multi-focality and cervical lymph node metastasis was analyzed. Results: There was a high rate of lymph node metastasis in male patients with PTMC. There was no significant correlation between age, multifocality and lymph node metastasis. Conclusion: The histological subtypes of PTMC have different clinicopathological characteristics and are important factors for cervical lymph node metastasis. Further evaluation of its histological classification is helpful for clinical treatment strategy.
