The central lymph node is the most common involvement for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), which is correlated to recurrence and survival. But it is difficult to accurately evaluate lymph node prior to an operation. This retrospective study was designed to develop a risk model and risk stratification to preoperatively predict central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in PTC and validate this model.
