Normal Parathyroid Glands Are Most Often Seen on Neck Ultrasound.

Acad Radiol

September 2024

Thyroid and Endocrine Tumors Department. La Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital. Sorbonne University, GRC N°16. 83 Bd de l'Hôpital, 75013, Paris, France; Centre of Pathology and Radiology, Paris, France.

Rationale And Objectives: The dogma is that normal parathyroid glands (PTGs) are not visible on ultrasound (US). Recently, several studies have shown that PTGs present these US features: ovoid structure, homogeneous and hyperechoic. The primary objective was to assess the detection rate, standard size and locations of normal PTGs in a population of patients consulting for thyroid US exam.

Learning curve for radiofrequency ablation of benign thyroid nodules.

Int J Hyperthermia

July 2021

Thyroid and Endocrine Tumors Department, Institute of Endocrinology, Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Sorbonne University, Paris, France.

To evaluate the effect of operator experience on the treatment outcomes of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for benign thyroid nodules (BTN). Data from the 90 first RFA procedures of a single operator in treating benign thyroid nodules were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to their chronological treatment rank: patients 1-30 (G1), 31-60 (G2) and 61-90 (G3).

TIRADS score is of limited clinical value for risk stratification of indeterminate cytological results.

Eur J Endocrinol

July 2018

Thyroid and Endocrine Tumors, Institute of Endocrinology, Pitié Salpêtrière Hospital, Pierre and Marie Curie University, Paris, France.

Context: Thyroid nodules with cytological indeterminate results represent a daily and recurrent issue for patient management.

Objective: The primary aim of our study was to determine if TIRADS (Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System) could be used to stratify the malignancy risk of these nodules and to help in their clinical management. Secondary objective was to estimate if this risk stratification would change after reclassification of encapsulated non-invasive follicular variant of papillary carcinomas (FVPTC) as non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm (NIFTP).

Objective: To evaluate prospectively the diagnostic accuracy of the thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS) and its interobserver agreement and to estimate the reduction of indications of fine-needle aspiration biopsies (FNABs).

Design: A prospective comparative study was designed.

Methods: In 2 years, 4550 nodules in 3543 patients were prospectively scored using a flowchart and a six-point scale and then submitted to US-FNAB.
