METHODS: One hundred and eighty-nine patients were examined from June 2004 to June 2007; they were divided into two groups: Group A included all the patients affected by PTC without CLT and Group B all the patients affected by PTC with CLT association. The surgical treatment was in all the patients the total thyroidectomy (TT).

The analysis was carried on with Student t test and chi squared analysis (statistically significant P
