ABSTRACT
The incidence of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma has been increasing worldwide. However, the optimal management strategy remains a topic of discussion and varies from an active follow-up to a thyroidectomy. New thermoablation techniques for selected cases seem to be sufficiently effective but minimally invasive. One of the newest thermoablation methods is ultrasound-guided percutaneous laser ablation. There are already some data showing promising results of this method in the management of papillary thyroid microcarcinomas. In this article, we review recent papers and conclude on the current status of the ultrasound-guided percutaneous laser ablation technique for the management of papillary thyroid microcarcinomas.
