Core Tip |
Adequate surgery is the mainstay of treatment in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). However, neck lymph node metastases after adequate initial treatment are present in a majority of cases. So far, treatment for neck lymph node metastases after adequate initial surgery in MTC has been controversial. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), which is considered a moderate approach between secondary surgery and surveillance, may be attempted for these recurrent patients. This case suggests that RFA may be an effective and safe treatment for local recurrent MTC. |
