Introduction Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is the most frequently occurring endocrine cancer and its incidence has been increasing steadily in men and women over the last few decades ( 1 , 2 , 3 ). DTC includes papillary thyroid cancer

Introduction Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) has continued to increase over the past several decades, likely due to enhanced detection ( 1 , 2 ). Cancer research, in general, has benefited greatly from many of the new scientific

Introduction Increased access to imaging techniques and fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has resulted in an increase in the rate of detection of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in recent years ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ). The increase in
