AB  - Well-differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) carries an excellent prognosis. Although 
      long-term survival rates are high, regional lymph node metastases are common. 
      Surgical management of cervical lymph nodes is integral to the comprehensive 
      treatment of DTC, but data from large randomized trials do not exist to define 
      optimal treatment. Therapy is thus guided by observational data, and founded on 
      an understanding of the behavior of lymphatic metastases in DTC. This article 
      focuses on the significance of lymph node metastases in thyroid cancer, and the 
      strategy for surgical management.
