Radiofrequency Ablation and Percutaneous Ethanol Injection Treatment for Recurrent Local and Distant Well-Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma

摘要

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and percutaneous ethanol (EtOH) injection techniques are new minimally invasive alternatives to surgical treatment of local or regional recurrence of well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WTC). We report our experience and long-term follow-up results using RFA or EtOH ablation in treating local recurrence and distant focal metastases from WTC.
