Incomplete ablation of thyroid cancer: Achilles' Heel?

ABSTRACT:

Background

In recent years, the incidence of thyroid nodules has increased significantly. There are various ways to treat thyroid nodules, and ablation therapy is one of the important ways to treat thyroid nodules. However, there are many complications and deficiencies in the current ablation treatment of thyroid nodules, especially the incomplete ablation of thyroid cancer nodules, which limits the further application of ablation technology. In this paper, we report two cases of incomplete ablation of thyroid nodules, one of which underwent surgical treatment due to anxiety after ablation, and the postoperative pathology confirmed that there was still residual papillary thyroid carcinoma, and the other patient underwent an operation after ablation, but visited our medical institut
