PET\/CT scans were performed in 34 patients before treatment. RFA, conducted under local anesthesia with an 18\u2010gauge internally cooled electrode and RF generator, was followed by evaluations of nodule volume modifications via ultrasonography, changes in symptomatic and cosmetic scores, and assessment of complications during and after the procedure. Six to twelve\u2009months post\u2010RFA, 33 patients received FNA for reassessment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Significant volume reductions were observed during follow\u2010up, comparing values before RFA and at 6\u2009months post\u2010RFA (7.31\u2009\u00b1\u200912.83\u2009cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001).
