Abstract To analyze the effects of different surgical procedures for the treatment
of thyroid cancer on the expression levels of serum interleukin-17 (IL-17), IL-35,
soluble interleukin-2 receptor (SIL-2R), and the prognostic factors. Seventy-eight
patients with differentiated thyroid cancer were selected and grouped as control
group (CG) (n = 39, underwent subtotal thyroidectomy) and observation group
(OG) (n = 39, underwent total thyroidectomy). The serum IL-17, IL-35, and SIL-
2R expression levels; the incidence of complications; and the differentiated
thyroid carcinoma (DTC) relapse rate were compared between the two groups. The
serum IL-17 and SIL-2R levels were… More >
