Filter by:There is no scientific data on post-thermal ablation cytological aspects, but treated nodules that grow back significantly after a procedure justify a new cytology in order not to ignore a neoplastic process. The EU-TIRADS classification usually used to stratify the risk of cancer (and to justify a fine needle aspiration biopsy) of thyroid nodules is not validated for nodules treated by thermal ablation (TA) (post-RF nodules). However, these nodules often acquire ultrasound criteria of suspicion making it necessary to develop an ultrasound stratification of the risk of malignancy specific to nodules treated by TA. The objective of this work is to describe the ultrasound and cytological aspects of these treated nodules by performing a systematic assessment at 3 years after thermal ablation including systematic neck ultrasound and fine needle aspiration biopsy. Thus, an ultrasound and cytological atlas (Bethesda classification 2017) of nodules treated by thermal ablation will be constituted.
Thyroid nodules are common clinical problem. The incidence is 2-4 per 100,000 people per year, being more common in women and the elderly. thyroid nodule is a "discrete lesion within the thyroid gland that is radiologically distinct from the surrounding thyroid parenchyma. Most thyroid nodules are asymptomatic, may present as neck swelling
Indeterminate thyroid nodules have a mild risk of malignancy (15-30%). The aim of our study is to individuate new biomarkers of thyroid carcinoma through multiomic analyses of blood samples and of specimen samples of patients with indeterminate thyroid nodules.
To study the value of thyroid artificial intelligence diagnosis system and fine needle puncture in the diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules, so as to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules by artificial intelligence.
Profiling and comparative analysis of genomic alterations and miRNA expression in benign and malignant thyroid tumors using histological and cytological specimens will be performed. Obtained information is necessary to create a molecular test to refine the cancer risk of cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules.
In this study, a randomized controlled study was conducted between two groups of 40 recipients of conventional flap during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy and 40 recipients of Mini-flap method during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy. In this study, we tried to determine whether the use of Mini-flap can reduce sensory loss and pain after BABA robotic-thyroidectomy.
To compare between surgical (hemi thyroidectomy and total thyroidectomy) and non-surgical (medical, ethanol injection,thermal ablation and laser photo coagulation) management of simple thyroid nodule regarding: - Outcome of every type of management - Feasibility of minimally invasive technique in management of simple thyroid nodule in Asyut university - Complication of every type of management
Thyroid nodules are a common finding in the general population,however, they are mostly unpalpable and usually discovered either during neck ultrasound (US) examination or by pathological examination at autopsy. They are found in about 8% of adults. Most thyroid nodules ''incidentalomas" are benign, however 7% may be malignant. Early detection of thyroid cancer helps in early treatment and better survival US is an accurate method for detection of thyroid nodules; however, US has a low accuracy in differentiating between benign from malignant thyroid nodules . US could suggest a malignancy likelihood criteria of a thyroid nodule, such as hypoechogenicity, increased intranodular vascularity, irregular margins, microcalcifications, absent halo, and a taller-than-wide shape measured in the transverse dimension.
A 2-years prospective, randomized and multicentric study will be performed to assess the efficacy of metformin compared to sitagliptin on benign thyroid nodules size ≥ 2 cm, in newly diagnosed patients with type 2 diabetes.
This clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and the safety of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in the treatment of benign thyroid nodules.
