Abstract Well-differentiated thyroid neoplasms may be included among the most frequently occurring thyroid carcinomas. Papillary ca. is without doubt the best behaved type. The aim of the present work is to perform a retrospective case history study to assess patients with con papillary ca. who have been treated surgically over the last 17 years and have been subjected to periodic checks. A sample of patients was therefore extrapolated who had all undergone total thyroidectomy for papillary ca. of the thyroid. The incidence of local recurrence of the disease was verified, together with the results at distance. Furthermore, the assessments performed were evaluated and compared. From the sample of patients observed we inferred that papillary carcinoma of the thyroid can have a good prognosis over time provided periodic random checks are carried out.
