Abstract:
As the clinically most common endocrine system disease, thyroid disorder is a global health problem characterized by high incidence and high disease burden. Currently, surgery remains the standard treatment of most thyroid cancers; however, active surveillance remains a feasible option for treatment of low-risk thyroid disorders. As the currently most widely used approach of thermal ablation, radiofrequency ablation is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of thyroid disorders. The review presents the advances in the efficacy and complications of radiofrequency ablation for treatment of benign thyroid nodules, follicular thyroid adenoma, and primary and recurrent thyroid cancers.
