The rates of transient RLNP and hypoparathyroidism after lymph node dissection in patients with papillary thyroid cancer with metastatic lymph nodes were high, and a greater number of retrieved lymph nodes in the central neck and the addition of lateral neck dissection were predictors for transient RLNP. These data may be used to discuss preoperatively with patients and make surgeons more cautious and meticulous during surgery to minimize complications.
