Abstract

The incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing worldwide. The increase in the frequency of screening tests may have led to an over-detection of small thyroid cancers. The Korean Thyroid Association (KTA) discourages the find needle aspiration of thyroid nodules ≤0.5 cm. The aim of this study was to evaluate time trends of characteristics of thyroid cancer patients in a single medical center.
