Zusammenfassung:To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of ultrasound-guided percutaneous thermal ablation (TA) for treating benign parotid tumors. Patients with benign parotid tumors who underwent ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MWA) or radiofrequency ablation (RFA) between January 2020 and March 2023 were included in this retrospective study. Change in tumor size (maximum diameter, tumor volume(V), volume reduction rate (VRR)) and cosmetic score (CS) were evaluated during a one-year follow-up period. We also recorded the incidence of any complications associated with TA. A total of 23 patients (13 males and 10 females; median age 65 years, range 5-91 years) were included. The mean VRR at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after TA was 37.03%±10.23%, 56.52%±8.76%, 82.28%±7.89%, and 89.39%±6.45%, respectively. Mean CS also changed from 3.39 ± 0.66 to 1.75 ± 0.93 (
