Reducing Radioiodine Treatment in Low Risk Papillary Thyroid Cancer

To study if its is safe to reduce the amount of postoperative treatments in those patients, who have been operated on because of a low-risk intrathyroidal papillary thyroid cancer with diameter of 11-20mm, and in whom postoperative thyroglobulin levels are of low level.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The purpose of the study : to enroll about 50 patients operated on because of a low-risk intrathyroidal papillary thyroid cancer with diameter of 11-20mm, and in whom postoperative thyroglobulin levels are of low level.

Methods: either to follow-up patients according to the study protocol without radioiodine treatment or to give a radioiodine treatment with a dose of 1.1 GBq according to the normal Finnish treatment protocol for papillary thyroid cancer to those patients who themselves preferred to have a normal postoperative treatment.
