Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To investigate the safety of selective embolization of thyroid arteries (SETA) as adjunctive or definitive treatment in different thyroid disorders

Safety measured according to incidence of major and minor complications compared to thyroidectomy.

Time frame
Up to 12 months follow up after embolization
2

To investigate the efficacy of selective embolization of thyroid arteries (SETA) as adjunctive or definitive treatment in different thyroid disorders

in hyperfunctiong (toxic) disorders Efficacy measured according to thyroid profile levels in certain time interval post procedure, every 3 months time interval and rate of hyper functioning recurrence in comparison to thyroidectomy. In diffuse or nodular goiter we measure efficacy by percentage of size reduction post procedure in comparison to primary size just before procedure

Time frame
Up to 12 months follow up after embolization
