Objective: To investigate the correlation between clinico-pathological features and lymph node metastasis of thyroid micropapillary carcinoma (PTMC). Methods: the clinico-pathological data of 142 cases of thyroid micropapillary carcinoma were collected, the relationship between sex, age, tumor location, multi-focality and cervical lymph node metastasis was analyzed. Results: There was a high rate of lymph node metastasis in male patients with PTMC. There was no significant correlation between age, multifocality and lymph node metastasis. Conclusion: The histological subtypes of PTMC have different clinicopathological characteristics and are important factors for cervical lymph node metastasis. Further evaluation of its histological classification is helpful for clinical treatment strategy.

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated the superiority of sugammadex over neostigmine for reversal of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockade (NMB) reversal. However, its increased cost over neostigmine remains a barrier to use in many institutions. Aims: The purposes of this study were to compare the outcomes of patients receiving neostigmine alone vs. patients receiving neostigmine and sugammadex and to identify the risk factors for patients requiring sugammadex as a rescue neuromuscular blockade reversal agent. Methods: A retrospective observational study of general anesthesia cases using rocuronium or vecuronium for NMB at a single regional medical center from January 1, 2019 to March 30, 2021 was performed. Demographics, surgical details, and outcomes of patients receiving neostigmine only (N) were compared to those of patients receiving neostigmine followed by sugammadex (NS). A conditional logistic regression model was developed to identify predictors of patients requiring a rescue dose of sugammadex for NMB reversal. Results: A total of 7104 patients were included (N=6684, NS=420). In comparison to patients in the N group, those in the NS group experienced shorter duration from last NMB administration to first reversal, longer PACU recovery times, longer length of stay, and higher rates of reintubation. After risk adjustment, patients receiving NS were more likely to be female, of non-white race, have increased BMIs, and a greater comorbidity burden than those requiring N only. In comparison to patients undergoing general surgery, those undergoing thoracic surgery are at increased risk for requiring NS. A model for predicting which patients would receive NS was generated with an AUC of 0.681 (95% CI: 0.654-0.708), sensitivity of 78% and specificity of 48%. Conclusion: These findings may assist anesthesiologists in identifying which patients are likely to require sugammadex for rescue NMB reversal after use of neostigmine and are therefore suitable candidates for using sugammadex as a first-line therapy.
