Abstract: In recent years, the abnormal expressions of BRAF, Runx2, Runx3 and S100A4 genes in thyroid papillary carcinoma have been found in many studies. The abnomal expressions of those genes are closely related to the tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, mulifocality of thyroid papillary carcinoma, which may be valuable in clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Key words: Carcinoma, papillary, Thyroid neoplasms, Genes, Lymphatic metastasis
