Abstract | Purpose: To evaluate postoperative serum thyroglobulin (Tg) as a reliable tumor marker in low-risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Methods: Two hundred and three patients met the selection criteria of >18 years old; who had undergone total or near total thyroidectomy; had a postoperative Tg, and had undergone Results: One hundred ten patients (54.1%) had discordant results (p < 0.05) with positive PA-WBS and Tg <1 ng/ml, while 93 patients (45.9%) had concordant results. For concordant results, 88 patients had positive PA-WBS and Tg >1 ng/ml, and 5 patients had negative PA-WBS and Tg <1 ng/ml. There was no patient with Tg >1 ng/ml and negative PA-WBS. There were 74 patients with high TSH (>30 mU/l) on abstention (thyroxine withdrawal protocol). Twenty-four (32.5%) had discordant results (p < 0.001) and 50 (67.5%) had concordant results. Conclusion: There is low correlation between postoperative Tg and PA-WBS. The sole use of Tg as a serum biomarker for postoperative disease status may not be reliable. |
