The current study provides evidence that the utilization of total thyroidectomy in combination with lymph node dissection as indicated in patients with lymph node metastases in pediatric patients with thyroid carcinoma leads to a significant reduction in the probability of recurrence of lymph node enlargement. During the performance of surgical procedures, meticulous observation plays a key role in mitigating the risk of postoperative complications, such as hypoparathyroidism, hypocalcemia, and injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Thus, it is imperative to conduct follow-up procedures for post-surgical interventions among pediatric patients diagnosed with TC.
