Left thyroid nodule for over 7 years has been growing and causing increasing pressure and discomfort, as well as difficulty in moving her neck. The complex cystic nodule measures 5.8 x 4.8 x 4.0 cm and has a volume of 45 ml. This lesion was not appropriate for percutaneous ethanol ablation due to the significant solid component.
