ABSTRACT
The incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer is increasing rapidly worldwide, with subcentimeter papillary thyroid carcinoma (SPTC) with a diameter of less than 1 cm accounting for more than 50%. Active surveillance (AS) as an alternative to immediate surgery for low-risk SPTC was launched in Japan in the 1990s and has been implemented in several countries, including Japan and the United States. However, the indications and safety of performing AS for low-risk SPTC remain controversial. In this article, the author summarizes the existing literature and explores its limitations of AS implementation, the effectiveness of surgical treatment, and the different attitudes of countries on AS, aiming to provide some references for the treatment options of low-risk SPTC.
