【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of the thyroid artery embolization for refractory hyperthyroidism. Methods Superselective catheterization and interventional embolization of thyroid superior and inferior arteries were performed with PVA microspheres and Gelfoam particles. Changes of function and size of thyroid were investigated after embolization. Results The procedures were succeeded in all 21 patients. Followed up by 3～12 months, serum level of thyroid hormones dropped significantly (median FT 3from 17.1 pmol/L to 7.44pmol/L, median FT 4 from 51.1pmol/L to 23.3pmol/L, P <0.01). The size of thyroid glands decreased remarkably . Symptoms of hyperthyroidism were controlled in 4 patients and were effectively controlled through low dose antithyroid medication in 17 patients. No serious complications occured. Conclusions Thyroid artery embolization is a new safe and effective method for refractory hyperthyroidism.更多还原
