Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation on postoperative conditions,thyroid hormone levels and nodule volume in patients with micropapillary thyroid cancer.Methods:A total of 176 patients with micropapillary thyroid cancer admitted to Hefei Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Sciences and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from February 2022 to December 2023 were selected,and they were divided into control group(92 cases)and observation group(84 cases)according to the difference of the treatment protocols.In them,3 cases were lost to visit in the control group and 2 cases were lost to visit in the observation group,and finally 89 cases were in the control group and 82 cases were in the observation group in the study.The control group was treated with surgical resection,and the observation group was treated with ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation.Both groups were followed up for 12 months after surgery.The surgical indexes,hospitalization cost,hospitalization time,and the thyroid hormone levels and quality of life before and 12 months after surgery between two groups were compared,and the occurrence of complications,postoperative recurrence and metastasis during the follow-up period were compared also between the two groups.The changes in nodule volume in the observation group were analyzed before and 3rd,6th and 12th month after surgery.Mental component summary(MCS),physical component summary(PCS)score and the MOS 36-item short-form health survey(SF-36)score were used in this study.Results:The surgical incision,the amount of surgical blood loss,the duration of surgery,the duration of hospitalization and the cost of hospitalization of the observation group were respectively(2.09±0.32)mm,(2.13±0.16)ml,(26.73±6.54)min,(2.10±0.52)d and(10 976.23±1132.56)CNY,which were less,or lower,or shorter,or less than these of the control group,and the differences were significant(t=51.031,31.853,27.924,27.028 and 21.925,P<0.05).Compared with preoperative serum thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH)level,that of control group increased at the 12th months after surgery,which was higher than that of observation group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t=22.482,P<0.05).The difference of the serum TSH level in the observation group between before and at the 12th month after surgery was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Compared with preoperative nodule volume,that of observation group first increased and then decreased at the 6th month and 12th month after surgery,and nodule volume at the 12th month after surgery was less than that before surgery(t=13.731,P<0.05).The MCS,PCS score,and SF-36 score both two groups at the 12th month after surgery increased than preoperative them,and these indicators of observation group were higher than them of control group,and the differences were statistically significant(t=14.624,11.986,and 13.582,P<0.05).The total incidence of complication during the follow-up period was 2.44%in observation group,which was lower than 10.11%in control group,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=4.175,P<0.05).There was no recurrence or metastasis in the two groups after surgery.Conclusion:Compared with surgery,ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation can improve the surgical index of patients with micropapillary thyroid cancer,and shorten the time of hospitalization,and reduce the hospitalization cost,and reduce the occurrence of complications.The recovery of patients are well after surgery,and there is not obvious recurrence and metastasis.At the same time,this treatment plan can significantly shorten the volume of the patient's nodules,and does not have significant effect on thyroid hormone.
