In summary, we presented several independent predictive factors for level V LNM in PTC patients. We constructed a risk prediction model consisting of tumor size ≥2.5 cm, number of CLNM≥3 and level II metastases and BRAFV600E mutation that may guide surgeons to evaluate the nodal status in PTC and perform tailored therapeutic LND.
