During a mean follow-up period of 75.5 ± 9.7 months, the overall papillary thyroid carcinoma disease progression was 5.0%. The volume reduction rate was 100.0 ± 0.3%, with 96.9% of tumors disappearing. The T1a and T1b groups had similar incidence of disease progression and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates. No patients experienced complications or underwent delayed surgery because of anxiety.
