Summary

The authors summarize the knowledge about opinions and the actually performed practice concerning the indications and extent of cervical dissections in the thyroid gland carcinoma at ORL workplaces of the Czech Republic. The information was obtained by using questionnaires, having been sent to 55 bed wards. Twenty seven (49%) of the wards responded. Seventeen wards sent back the filled out questionnaires, 10 wards indicated that thyroid gland surgery was not performed there.

The results indicate that surgical procedures at the individual ORL wards were not the same. The differences concern especially indications for elective cervical dissections and their extent in well differentiated carcinomas as well as in medullar carcinoma. A broader discussion and adhering to recommendations of larger international professional associations (e.g. European Thyroid Association) can contribute to unification of the procedures. The individual decision making for specific patients requires an interdisciplinary discussion with endocrinologists and specialists of other medical branches.
