Is papillary thyroid cancer not considered cancer?

Papillary thyroid cancer is also cancer and has the highest incidence among all thyroid malignancies. Some people say it is not considered cancer because it is a kind of cancer with good treatment effect. Radical resection through surgery, if there is lymph node metastasis in the neck, etc., can be combined with nuclear iodine-131 treatment, and most of the 5-year survival rate can reach more than 90%, which means the treatment effect is very good and no recurrence for more than 5 years is considered clinical cure. After papillary thyroid cancer is treated by surgery, regular monitoring of thyroid function is also required. It usually requires subtotal thyroidectomy or total thyroidectomy + cervical lymph node dissection, which will cause hypothyroidism after surgery and requires long-term treatment with thyroxine tablets, commonly used is Eugenol. The amount of medication should be adjusted according to the results of thyroid function tests.
