Abstract

Radiofrequency ablation is a well-known, safe, and effective method for treating benign thyroid nodules and recurring thyroid cancer as well as parathyroid adenomas that has yielded promising results in recent years. Since the Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology introduced the devices and the basic techniques for radiofrequency ablation in 2012, radiofrequency ablation has been approved all over the world and both the devices and techniques have improved.

This review aims to instruct interventional radiologists who are doing or intend to start doing radiofrequency ablation of thyroid and parathyroid lesions, as well as thyroid and parathyroid specialists who provide pre- and post-operative care, in the training, execution, and quality control for radiofrequency ablation of thyroid nodules and parathyroid adenomas to optimize the efficacy and safety of the treatment.

Resumen

La ablación por radiofrecuencia (ARF) es un método bien conocido, seguro y eficaz para tratar los nódulos tiroideos benignos, los cánceres tiroideos recurrentes, así como los adenomas de paratiroides, con resultados prometedores en los últimos años. Los dispositivos empleados y las técnicas básicas para la ARF fueron introducidos por la Sociedad Coreana de Radiología de Tiroides (KSThR) en 2012, si bien la ARF se ha aprobado en todo el mundo, con avances posteriores tanto en dispositivos como en técnica.

El objetivo de esta revisión es instruir a los radiólogos intervencionistas que pretendan realizar, o que ya estén realizando, intervenciones de ARF, así como especialistas en tiroides y paratiroides que brinden atención pre y postoperatoria, acerca de la capacitación, la ejecución y el control de calidad de la ARF de los nódulos tiroideos y adenomas paratiroideos, para optimizar la eficacia del tratamiento y la seguridad del paciente.
