JOURNAL OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE 2018; 37:1423-1429. [PMID: 29219197 DOI: 10.1002/jum.14482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2017] [Revised: 07/19/2017] [Accepted: 08/30/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES We compared the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of ultrasound-guided percutaneous polidocanol injection and percutaneous ethanol injection for the treatment of benign cystic and predominantly cystic thyroid nodules. METHODS A total of 135 cystic thyroid nodules treated by percutaneous ethanol injection and 136 cystic thyroid nodules treated by percutaneous polidocanol injection were enrolled retrospectively in this study from May 2010 to March 2016. The nodules were followed after 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Nodule volumes, symptoms scores, and cosmetic scores were assessed before treatment and at follow-up. The therapeutic success rate, safety, and cost-effectiveness between the groups were also compared. RESULTS No significant differences in the reduction of the nodule volume, volume reduction rate, and therapeutic success were observed between the groups with cystic and predominantly cystic thyroid nodules during follow-up (P > .05). Neither the cosmetic scores (P = .59; P = .42) nor the symptom scores (P = .32; P = .73) in the cystic and predominantly cystic nodules were significantly different between the groups at the last follow-up. The complication rates for ethanol were higher than those for polidocanol (P < .05). However, the cost of polidocanol injection was higher than that of ethanol injection for cystic thyroid nodules (mean ± SD, US$97.18 ± US$22.17 versus US$43.36 ± US$5.51; P < .01). CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound-guided percutaneous polidocanol injection can be an alternative for sclerotherapy of cystic or predominantly cystic thyroid nodules. However, its cost was higher than that of percutaneous ethanol injection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous polidocanol injection (PPI) in treatment of predominantly cystic thyroid nodules. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study included 111 patients with 122 benign predominantly cystic thyroid nodules inducing pressure symptoms or cosmetic problems. The nodules were randomized to a single aspiration with (n = 61) or without (n = 61) subsequent PPI and followed up after 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Ten patients (12 nodules) declined to follow up after aspiration in group 2. Nodule volumes, symptoms scores, and cosmetic scores were evaluated before and after treatment. The therapeutic success rate and safety of PPI for treatment of predominantly cystic thyroid nodules were also evaluated. RESULTS In the PPI group, the nodule volumes were reduced from 13.67 ± 9.90 to 2.60 ± 2.66 (p < .001). Therapeutic success rate (nodule volume reduction >50%) was obtained in 57 of 61 (93.44%) nodules in the PPI group, compared to seven of 49 (14.29%) in the aspiration group (p < .001). In the aspiration group, the nodule volume was not significantly reduced. The reduction in symptom scores was significantly higher in the PPI group (from 3.60 ± 1.65 to 1.60 ± 1.19) than in the aspiration group (from 3.62 ± 1.89 to 3.30 ± 1.06) (p < .001, between groups). The reduction in cosmetic scores showed a significant difference between groups (p < .001). In total, 4.92% of patients (3/61) in the PPI group and 85.71% (42/49) in the aspiration group showed recurrence during the follow-up period. There was a significant difference in the recurrence rate between groups (p < .001). No major side-effects occurred. CONCLUSIONS US-guided PPI of benign recurrent predominantly cystic thyroid nodules is effective and safe. PPI is an important alternative to benign recurrent predominantly cystic thyroid nodules.

Abstract
AIM In this study, we compared and valued efficacy and safety of percutaneous echoguided sclerotherapy (PES) using 3% polidocanol with that using 99% ethanol in the treatment of patients with simple renal cysts. MATERIALS AND METHODS PES was performed for 65 simple renal cysts. Under ultrasonographic guidance the cyst was punctured using an 18 gauge needle. Sclerotherapy was performed with ethanol in 55% (36/65) of cases and with polidocanol in the remaining 45% (29/65). Patients were followed up with an ultrasound examination at 4 months, 8 months, and then at yearly intervals. A reduction of 50% or greater in cyst diameter was considered successful. RESULTS The median followup period for the ethanol and polidocanol groups was 24.6 and 22.8 months, respectively. The successful outcome ratio of the polidocanol group was significantly higher (90% vs. 61%, respectively) than the one of the ethanol group (P = 0.003). The partial regression of the ethanol and polidocanol groups were 6% versus 7%, respectively. The failure ratio of the polidocanol group was significantly lower (3% vs. 33%, respectively) than that of the ethanol group (P = 0.004). Neither infectious complications nor hyperthermia occurred in all treated cases. However, these methods are not completely free from symptoms. All these symptoms disappeared few hours after the procedure. CONCLUSIONS Polidocanol is a safe and effective sclerosing agent for renal cysts, with superior clinical results than ethanol. Therefore, polidocanol can be an alternative to ethanol in sclerotherapy of renal cysts.

Abstract
Congenital "true" splenic cysts are rare lesions. Therapeutic methods for the management of these lesions have been based on preserving splenic function due to the immunologic role of spleen. We report three different cases of congenital splenic cysts treated by percutaneous drainage and polidocanol sclerotherapy. This less invasive treatment appears to be safe and effective after 6 to 36 months of follow-up.
