Contemporary management of small papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) includes active surveillance (AS) as a number of these tumours are indolent. Overseas studies have reported AS in tumours up to 15 mm. This study aims to look at an Australian cohort of patients who have had surgery for non‐incidental PTCs and analyse their pre‐operative ultrasound and histopathology data to investigate potential issues that might arise in the era of AS.
