Paraplegic Patient with Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Cancer: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Radioactive Iodine Therapy Safety and Efficacy Strategy.

High-activity radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy for metastatic thyroid cancer (TC) requires isolation to minimize radiation exposure to third parties, thus posing challenges for patients needing hands-on care. There are limited data on the approach to high-activity RAI treatment in paraplegic patients. We report a state-of-the-art multidisciplinary approach to the management of bedbound patients, covering necessary radiation safety measures that lead to radiation exposure levels as low as reasonably achievable.
