Abstract: Isthmic thyroidectomy is recommended for isolated PTMCI. Isthmus of thyroid+ unilateral lobectomy is feasible for PTMCI with unilateral lobectomy. If multiple suspicious malignant nodules（≥3） occur in unilateral lobectomy, total thyroidectomy is recommended. Total thyroidectomy is feasible for PTMCI with bilateral nodules. All PTMCI patients should undergo prophylactic central cervical lymph node dissection at the same time.
