【 摘 要 】

We take issue with the stance that postoperative radioiodine remnant ablation should be applied ubiquitously as adjuvant therapy in patients with well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma. In this article, we state the reasons that we believe a compelling case can be made against ablation in most patients.
