OBJECTIVE To study the significance of calcification in the thyroid papillary carcinoma. METHODS Retrospectively analyze 88 cases of thyroid papillary carcinoma. RESULTS There was no association between calcification with age,TSH and TNM. But calcification was related to the size of tumor (P < 0.05). In addition, the level of TSH has no relationship with the size of tumor. CONCLUSIONS Calcification especially microcalcification may have significant relationship with thyroid papillary carcinoma and be directly related to the size of tumor. The larger size of tumor implies the higher possibility of calcification.
