Brief Summary:
To compare the safety efficacy and quality of life between staged thermal ablation and thyroidectomy in the treatment of Large benign thyroid nodules
Detailed Description:
Large benign thyroid nodules BTNsusually cause compressive symptoms or cosmetic concerns and therefore require treatment Thyroidectomy remains the mainstay treatment for large symptomatic BTNs However if surgery is not feasible or refused ablative approach could be considered in selected patients However it has been proved that single application of thermal ablation is less effective in causing shrinkage in large thyroid nodules The possible reason is that it is difficult for single application of thermal ablation to cover all of the nodule tissue in a three-dimension if the nodule is large In addition nodule locations adjacent to vital structures might hinder complete treatment in one session because of safety concerns Few studies reveal that staged thermal ablation Pre-designed multiple sessions of thermal ablation can also achieve complete ablation and adequate volume reduction of large benign thyroid nodules However there is a lack of comparison between these two methods Thus this study is aimed to compare the safety efficacy quality of life between staged thermal ablation and thyroidectomy for treating large benign thyroid nodules
