UNLABELLED
Post-operative neck nodal metastases are detected in 9-20 % of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Ultrasound-guided ethanol injection (UPEI) has been used with promising results in the treatment of PTC patients with limited number of lymph-node metastases.
CLINICAL CASE
We report the imaging and biochemical documentation of UPEI results in four metastatic neck lymph-nodes of papillary thyroid-cancer. A significant reduction both in the diameter of the lymph-nodes and in the serum thyroglobulin levels were observed in all cases and have been reported in a step-by-step sequence.
CONCLUSION
the UPEI treatment is a simple and suitable tool for the treatment of PTC cervical lymph-node metastases.
未标注
在9%至20%的甲状腺乳头状癌（PTC）患者中可检测到术后颈部淋巴结转移。超声引导下乙醇注射（UPEI）已用于治疗淋巴结转移数量有限的PTC患者，并取得了有前景的结果。
临床病例
我们报告了UPEI治疗甲状腺乳头状癌颈部四个转移性淋巴结的影像学和生化记录。所有病例均观察到淋巴结直径和血清甲状腺球蛋白水平显著降低，并已按步骤顺序进行了报告。
结论
UPEI治疗是治疗PTC颈部淋巴结转移的一种简单且合适的工具。
