Efficacy of thyroid cyst sclerotherapy with polidocanol
By Mercun Ziga, Martinjak Laura, Pirnat Edvard and 3 others.
Abstract
Simple cysts are a common form of thyroid nodules. If the cyst is symptomatic, recurs after fine needle aspiration or increases in size, sclerotherapy of the cyst is indicated. Polidocanol can be used as a sclerosing agent, but there are few studies evaluating the efficacy of polidocanol in the sclerotherapy of thyroid cysts.
