Changes in Serum Thyroglobulin Levels After Lobectomy in Patients with Low-Risk Papillary Thyroid Cancer

Abstract

Serum Tg levels and the Tg/TSH ratio increased gradually after lobectomy in patients with and without recurrences, without any significant differences. Periodic measurements of serum Tg levels seem to have limited value in predicting recurrent PTCs after lobectomy.
