Abstract
Advances in morphologic and molecular tumor characterization, tumor epidemiology and clinical outcome research have allowed for a more balanced view on the risk-benefit profile of thyroid cancer surgery [1]. The concept of personalized thyroid surgery, prompted by the advent of less invasive surgical techniques, rises to the challenge posed by the current epidemic of low-risk thyroid cancers, shifting the focus to risk minimization.
