Abstract
Although papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has a favorable prognosis, reoccurrence in the neck region can range between 20% in low risk tumors to 59% in high risk tumors. To add, in these reoccurring tumors, repeated surgeries can be challenging. Novel image-guided percutaneous interventions for thyroid tumors such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been studied in solitary and reoccurring PTC with favorable results. This case describes a patient with reoccurring PTC who underwent radiofrequency ablation.
