- Title
Thyroid Cancer Overdiagnosis and Malpractice Climate.
- Authors
Schnadig, Vicki J.
- Abstract
The author conveys her response to a commentary made about his editorial regarding thyroid cancer overdiagnosis. She agrees with the feedback that tort reform is not addressed in her report. She added that delay in intervention for low-risk papillary microcarcinoma does not influence prognosis. One of the aims of her report is to suggest that comments of pathologists may contribute to patient and clinician anxiety.
