Clinical Trial: 10 Years' Follow-up Results of Ultrasound-guided Radiofrequency Ablation Versus Surgery for Low-risk Papillary Thyroid Micro-carcinoma

U.S., Aug. 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07107503) titled '10 Years' Follow-up Results of Ultrasound-guided Radiofrequency Ablation Versus Surgery for Low-risk Papillary Thyroid Micro-carcinoma' on July 30.

Brief Summary: Papillary thyroid micro-carcinoma (PTMC) generally demonstrates favorable prognosis. However, the potential risk of disease progression requires careful therapeutic consideration. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has garnered attention as a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with PTMC who choose to decline both surgical resection (SR) and active surveillance. However, comprehensive comparative studies evaluating RFA versus surgery regarding long-term oncological ...
