The optimal extent of therapeutic neck dissection (ND) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTCa) is still in debate. Resection of level II, III, IV, and Vb lymph nodes is generally recommended according to recent guidelines;1,4 however, there is no clear consensus on whether to include level Va or Vb dissection because the frequency of level Va or Vb metastasis is not well known, especially when metastasis was not suspected during the preoperative imaging studies such as ultrasonography (US) or computed tomography (CT).2‐4 Therefore, we investigated the frequency and pattern of occult Va and Vb metastasis by which we can establish a clearer guideline of therapeutic ND in PTCa. …
