Background The use of ultrasound‐guided ablation procedures to treat both benign and
malignant thyroid conditions is gaining increasing interest. This document has been …

Standard therapeutic approaches for benign thyroid lesions that warrant intervention are
surgery for cold and either surgery or radioiodine for autonomously functioning thyroid …

Benign thyroid nodules are a common clinical occurrence and usually do not require
treatment unless symptomatic. During the last years, ultrasound-guided minimally invasive …

Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of microwave ablation (MWA), including
cooled MWA (cMWA) and uncooled MWA (uMWA), for the treatment of benign thyroid …

Objective The complications and treatment effects of conventional thyroidectomy and thyroid
thermal ablation should be compared in order to identify the best intervention for patients …

Purpose To assess the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for primary papillary
thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) with a large sample of 185 patients. Methods A total of 185 …

Aim: This guideline (GL) is aimed at providing a reference for the management of non-
