    There are different types of statistics that can help doctors evaluate a person’s chance of recovery from thyroid cancer. These are called survival statistics. A specific type of survival statistic is called the relative survival rate. It is often used to predict how having cancer may affect life expectancy.

    The prognosis for most types of thyroid cancer is generally positive, particularly in the early stages. Treatment can cure most cases if the cancer has not spread beyond the thyroid region. The 5-year relative survival rate of localized and regional stages of papillary, follicular, and medullary thyroid cancer is 92% and higher.
    Medullary and anaplastic thyroid cancers, which together make up about 3% of all thyroid cancers, are the most likely to spread and have the lowest survival rates. If there is distant spread to other parts of the body, it is called metastatic disease. The 5-year relative survival rate for metastatic papillary thyroid cancer is 74%.
