ABSTRACT
In recent years, the incidence of thyroid cancer has rapidly increased, whereas the mortality rate has not risen correspondingly. Therefore, scholars at home and abroad have proposed the view of overdiagnosis in thyroid cancer, sparking intense debates about the phenomenon of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. A historical review and discussion of the primary reasons for the increase in thyroid cancer incidence and the improvement in treatment outcomes are beneficial. It helps clarify that the real increase in thyroid cancer is primarily due to the higher incidence rate, rather than overdiagnosis. Additionally, it allows us to reevaluate which factors guarantee favorable efficacy in thyroid cancer.
