Analysis of the factors affecting A-TG Increased after the DTC operation and super(131)I treatment

Objective To analyze influence factors of serum A-TG level after DTC super(131)I treatment, to explore whether A-TG can be used as an indicator of follow-up, recurrence and metastasis of DTC. Methods From 2008 January to 2013 February, a total of 106 DTC patients underwent operation excisions of thyroid radioiodine were treated with super(131)I. Before and 1 month after treatment, the levels of A-TG, TG, THS were measured. The relationship of A-TG and thyroid operation range operation times, thyroid gland residual volume and time, the levels of TSH and TG, thyroid cancer metastasis and recurrence were examined. Results Serum A-TG concentration associated with operation scope, frequency (P
