Overview

Minimally invasive techniques improve outcomes for patients with benign thyroid nodules, suggesting safer options over surgery.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of minimally invasive and non-invasive treatments for benign thyroid nodules.
  • Review of contemporary guidelines and evidence from randomized and observational studies.
  • Comparison of laser thermal ablation, radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and high-intensity focused ultrasound.
  • Assessment of patient outcomes and treatment efficacy.
  • Laser thermal ablation demonstrates safety and efficacy for symptomatic cold thyroid nodules.
  • Radiofrequency ablation is effective in managing papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and cystic nodules.
  • Microwave ablation offers improved symptom relief but has higher complication rates.
