| الوصف: | Aim: The short-term and long-term efficacy of different thermal percutaneous ablation techniques remains a topical issue. Our group implemented percutaneous laser ablation (LA), a moving-shot technique to increase efficiency and reduce costs and variability of LA by applying multiple lower-intensity energy illuminations (MLIEI) covering the nodular volume (V) through changes in position of a single laser fiber within the thyroid nodule. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of the single-fiber LA-MLIEI during a 5-year follow-up and to identify possible predictors of the final outcome. Methods: Prospective study: Thirty outpatients (23 women and seven men) with benign symptomatic thyroid nodules were assigned to single-fiber LA-MLIEI, between 2012 and 2015. A single LA session was performed under real-time ultrasound (US) guidance using a 1,064-nm continuous-wave laser at 3 W. A 400-µm optical fiber was inserted through a 21-gauge needle, and 3-10 illuminations were performed per nodule, administering between 400 and 850 J/illumination. The total administered energy was calculated on the initial V of the nodule and the estimated ablation area. US evaluation was performed after LA-MLIEI at 1 week and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months and after that annually up to 5 years. Clinical symptoms, laboratory thyroid function during follow-up, and acute and chronic complications of treatment were registered. |
