目的：为了确定甲状腺滤泡癌（FTC）患者在诊断时存在淋巴结或远处转移的危险因素，以及肿瘤浸润和转移类型之间是否存在相关性。由于远处转移是影响患者生存的独立预后因素，因此确定发生转移风险较高患者的临床病理特征具有更大的临床意义。
Objective: To determine risk factors for presence of lymph node or distant metastases in patients with follicular thyroid cancer (FTC) at the time of diagnosis and whether there is a relationship between the type of tumor invasion and metastases.Summary Background Data: FTC often presents distant metastases at the initial diagnosis. As distant metastases are independent prognostic factors in a patient's survival, determination of clinicopathologic characteristics for patients who are at higher risk for developing metastases is of greater clinical importance.Methods: The prognostic significance of gender (male vs. female), age (
