甲状腺机能亢进的介入治疗

目的：探讨动脉内栓塞治疗甲状腺机能亢进 （甲亢）的临床应用。方法：对11例甲亢患者作甲状腺上动脉及下动脉的超选择性插管，并对上述血管行栓塞术。结果：11例甲状腺动脉栓塞均成功，栓塞后10例患者甲状腺机能逐渐恢复至正常水平，1例患者症状未得到满意控制，第2次行右侧甲状腺下动脉栓塞术后甲状腺机能逐渐恢复至正常水平，全部病例术后均无严重并发症发生。结论：动脉内栓塞治疗甲亢安全、简便、痛苦小、并发症少，是十分有效的治疗方法。

Interventional therapy of hyperthyroidism

Objective To evaluate clinical application of arterial embolotherapy on hyperthyroidism. Methods 11 patients with hyperthyroidism were performed with thyroid superior and inferior arterial super selective arteriography and interventional embolization by polyvinyl alcohol(PVA),gelfoam particles and wool gianturco coil. Results The procedures were succeeded in 11 patients. After the embolotherapy , the thyroid function gradually returned to normal level in 10 patients.
