An open-label, randomized, controlled study of the effectiveness and safety of a high intensity focused ultrasound device compared with observation in patients with non-malignant cold thyroid nodules

Leenhardt Laurence , Rouxel Agnes , Menegaux Fabrice , Esnault Olivier

Aim: To compare nodule volume change at 6 months follow-up in patients treated by ultrasound guided high intensity focused ultrasound (US-HIFU) with patients undergoing observation in a simple monocentric, open label, randomized-control study.Patients and methods: The study was IRB approved and all patients signed an informed consent. 32 patients with 34 benign cold thyroid nodules indicated for surgery were recruited for the study: 21 patients assigned ...

Introduction: Persistent primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) occurs in 2.5 to 15% of cases after parathyroidectomy. Pre-operative localization studies (usually 99mTc-MIBI and cervical ultrasonography (US)) allow focused surgical approach (unilateral neck exploration or minimally invasive parathyroidectomy). Few studies have evaluated the best pre-reoperative approaches in case of persistent sporadic pHPT. The aim of our study is to evaluate the value of a second pre-...

Background: Understanding of changes in salivary and lachrymal gland functions after radioiodine therapy (131I-therapy) remains limited; and, to-date no studies have evaluated dose-response relationships between absorbed dose from 131I-therapy and dysfunctions of these glands. This study investigates salivary/lachrymal dysfunctions in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients six months after 131I-therapy, identifies 131I-therapy related risk ...

Introduction: Health-related Quality of Life (HR-QoL) is usually impaired in patients with thyroid diseases compared to the general population. Thyroidectomy is largely performed in case of benign thyroid disease, and can be associated with severe long-term complications: vocal cord palsy (VCP), hypoparathyroidism. Our goal was to report the long-term HR-QoL outcomes after thyroidectomy using the MOS 36-item short form health survey (SF-36) self-questionnaire.<p class="abs...
