Clinical Outcome of Remnant Thyroid Ablation with Low Dose Radioiodine in Korean Patients with Low to Intermediate-risk Thyroid Cancer
Radioiodine activity required for remnant thyroid ablation is of great concern, to avoid unnecessary exposure to radiation and minimize adverse effects. We investigated clinical outcomes of remnant thyroid ablation with a low radioiodine activity in Korean patients with low to intermediate-risk thyroid cancer. For remnant thyroid ablation, 176 patients received radioiodine of 1.1 GBq, under a s...
متن کاملRadioiodine-remnant ablation in low-risk differentiated thyroid cancer: pros.
Differentiated thyroid carcinomas are typically treated with total thyroidectomy as initial therapy. Subsequent radioactive iodine (RAI) ablation destroys post-surgical thyroid remnants, can additionally provide adjuvant therapy of residual and metastatic thyroid cancers, and enhances the sensitivity and specificity of further diagnostic studies. There is current controversy regarding whether a...
متن کاملPAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA IN MASHHAD
Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy. This study surveys the pathologic characteristics of thyroid cancerin Mashhad and study of papillary carcinoma in more detail. In this retrospective study, 108 out of 197 cases of thyroid cancer were papillary in type (55%), with female to male ratio of 1.91 which is lower than current reports. The age at the time of diagnosis ranged ...
متن کاملApplication of post-surgical stimulated thyroglobulin for radioiodine remnant ablation selection in low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma.
BACKGROUND We present our ongoing experience in the use of postsurgical stimulated serum thyroglobulin (Stim-Tg) to assist in radioiodine remnant ablation (RRA) decision-making. METHODS Patients with low-risk well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma (WDTC) with undetectable anti-Tg antibodies were prospectively followed after total thyroidectomy and therapeutic central compartment neck dissectio...
متن کاملChanges in salivary gland function following radioiodine therapy of thyroid diseases: A comparison of high-dose therapy for thyroid cancer and low-dose therapy for benign thyroid disease
Introduction: High-dose radioactive iodine therapy in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) may adversely affect the salivary gland function. This study is aimed to evaluate the effect of radioactive iodine (RAI) with dose of 100 mCi in DTC patients compared to lower doses of less than 30 mCi in hyperthyroid cases. Methods: Fifty four patients (13 men and 41 women) age: 42.3±14.3 (21-71) years w...
