Description

Minimally invasive procedures are now more widely used for benign and some low-risk cancerous thyroid tumors. In certain cases of papillary thyroid microcarcinomas; and if those are positioned in a favorable location, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) offers a less invasive treatment option compared to traditional surgical approaches. Listen to Leonardo Guimarães Rangel, MD, Head and Neck Surgeon in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and international expert in minimally invasive procedures in thyroid tumors, present his Visual Vignette on Radiofrequency Ablation of Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinomas,  moderated by Sina Jasim, MD, MPH, Associate Professor of Medicine, and Endocrine Neoplasia Specialist at Washington University School of Medicine. Key topics include procedure safety, determining the right patient and nodule candidate, follow-up care, challenges, and future outcomes.
