Abstract: RFA is a useful treatment modality in patients with liver metastases from thyroid carcinoma. It should be considered an adjunct to other types of treatment or for those patients in whom more regular treatment modalities are not effective or possible or are associated with increased risks.

“…The ablation could be performed via laparotomy or percutaneously. RFA should be taken into account as a cytoreductive modality increasing the effectiveness of RAI treatment (in RAI-avid metastases), but also in patients with no or low RAI uptake [49,50].
